Abstract
The usage of low-quality components in communicating devices introduces acoustic nonlinearity. The presence of nonlinearity creates challenges in noise cancellation applications, especially the acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) that requires an adaptive filter of a very high order. However, the functional link adaptive filter (FLAF) algorithm models the acoustic nonlinearity efficiently but shows slow convergence performance due to a very high filter order. To improve the convergence performance of the FLAF, the wavelet transform-domain FLAF (WTD-FLAF) is proposed for nonlinear AEC (NAEC) applications. The convergence rate is improved by decomposing a higher-order adaptive filter into smaller-order subfilters. The convergence speed improvement is gained at the expense of increased computational complexity. A low complexity version of the WTD-FLAF, named as selective update WTD-FLAF (SU-WTD-FLAF) algorithm, is also presented. The SU-WTD-FLAF algorithm is based on the selective coefficient update approach. Computer simulations demonstrate that the convergence performance of the proposed algorithms outperforms the standard FLAF.
