Abstract

A scheme for controlling the adaptive filters associated with previously proposed method for Blind Source Separation (BSS) is presented. The proposed quasi-BSS method relies on the condition that ISA periods are available and reliable detection of the ISA periods. It was shown that the proposed ISA period detection and adaptation control scheme is effective and fast-acting. The complete BSS solution can be further simplified by replacing the APA used with as fast affine approach.
