Exact Tracking Analysis of the ∈-NLMS algorithm for circular complex correlated Gaussian input

Abstract

This work presents exact tracking analysis of the ∈-normalized least mean square (∈-NLMS) algorithm for circular complex correlated Gaussian input. The analysis is based on the derivation of a closed form expression for the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of random variables of the form equations. The CDF is then used to derive the first and second moments of these variables. These moments in turn completely characterize the tracking performance of the ∈-NLMS algorithm in explicit closed form expressions. Consequently, new explicit closed-form expressions for the steady state tracking excess mean square error and optimum step size are derived. The simulation results of the tracking behavior of the filter match the expressions obtained theoretically for various degrees of input correlation and for various values of ∈.
