# The lms adaptive filter algorithm

 Page 1 / 1

Recall the Weiner filter problem

$\{{x}_{k}\}$ , $\{{d}_{k}\}$ jointly wide sense stationary

Find $W$ minimizing $({}_{k}^{2})$ ${}_{k}={d}_{k}-{y}_{k}={d}_{k}-\sum_{i=0}^{M-1} {w}_{i}{x}_{k-i}={d}_{k}-{X}^{k}^T{W}^{k}$ ${X}^{k}=\begin{pmatrix}{x}_{k}\\ {x}_{k-1}\\ \\ {x}_{k-M+1}\\ \end{pmatrix}$ ${W}^{k}=\begin{pmatrix}{w}_{0}^{k}\\ {w}_{1}^{k}\\ \\ {w}_{M-1}^{k}\\ \end{pmatrix}$ The superscript denotes absolute time, and the subscript denotes time or a vector index.

the solution can be found by setting the gradient $0$

${}^{k}=\frac{\partial^{1}({}_{k}^{2})}{\partial W}=(2{}_{k}-{X}^{k})=(-2({d}_{k}-{X}^{k}^T{W}_{k}){X}^{k})=-(2({d}_{k}{X}^{k}))+(, {X}^{k}, {X}^{k}^T)W=2P+2RW$
$({W}_{\mathrm{opt}}=R^{(-1)}P)$ Alternatively, ${W}_{\mathrm{opt}}$ can be found iteratively using a gradient descent technique ${W}^{k+1}={W}^{k}-{}^{k}$ In practice, we don't know $R$ and $P$ exactly, and in an adaptive context they may be slowly varying with time.

To find the (approximate) Wiener filter, some approximations are necessary. As always, the key is to make the right approximations!

Approximate $R$ and $P$ :RLS methods, as discussed last time.
Approximate the gradient! ${}^{k}=\frac{\partial^{1}({}_{k}^{2})}{\partial W}$
Note that ${}_{k}^{2}$ itself is a very noisy approximation to $({}_{k}^{2})$ . We can get a noisy approximation to the gradient by finding the gradient of ${}_{k}^{2}$ ! Widrow and Hoff first published the LMS algorithm, based on this clever idea, in 1960. $({}^{k})=\frac{\partial^{1}{}_{k}^{2}}{\partial W}=2{}_{k}\frac{\partial^{1}{d}_{k}-{W}^{k}^T{X}^{k}}{\partial W}=2{}_{k}-{X}^{k}=-(2{}_{k}{X}^{k})$ This yields the LMS adaptive filter algorithm

## The lms adaptive filter algorithm

• ${y}_{k}={W}^{k}^T{X}^{k}=\sum_{i=0}^{M-1} {w}_{i}^{k}{x}_{k-i}$
• ${}_{k}={d}_{k}-{y}_{k}$
• ${W}^{k+1}={W}^{k}-({}^{k})={W}^{k}--2{}_{k}{X}^{k}={W}^{k}+2{}_{k}{X}^{k}$ ( ${w}_{i}^{k+1}={w}_{i}^{k}+2{}_{k}{x}_{k-i}$ )

The LMS algorithm is often called a stochastic gradient algorithm, since $({}^{k})$ is a noisy gradient. This is by far the most commonly used adaptive filtering algorithm, because

• it was the first
• it is very simple
• in practice it works well (except that sometimes it converges slowly)
• it requires relatively litle computation
• it updates the tap weights every sample, so it continually adapts the filter
• it tracks slow changes in the signal statistics well

## Computational cost of lms

To Compute ${y}_{k}$ ${}_{k}$ ${W}^{k+1}$ = Total
multiplies $M$ $0$ $M+1$ $2M+1$
adds $M-1$ $1$ $M$ $2M$

So the LMS algorithm is $O(M)$ per sample. In fact, it is nicely balanced in that the filter computation and the adaptation require the sameamount of computation.

Note that the parameter  plays a very important role in the LMS algorithm. It can also be varied with time, but usually a constant  ("convergence weight facor") is used, chosen after experimentation for a givenapplication.

large  : fast convergence, fast adaptivity

small  : accurate $W$ less misadjustment error, stability

Is there any normative that regulates the use of silver nanoparticles?
what king of growth are you checking .?
Renato
What fields keep nano created devices from performing or assimulating ? Magnetic fields ? Are do they assimilate ?
why we need to study biomolecules, molecular biology in nanotechnology?
?
Kyle
yes I'm doing my masters in nanotechnology, we are being studying all these domains as well..
why?
what school?
Kyle
biomolecules are e building blocks of every organics and inorganic materials.
Joe
anyone know any internet site where one can find nanotechnology papers?
research.net
kanaga
sciencedirect big data base
Ernesto
Introduction about quantum dots in nanotechnology
what does nano mean?
nano basically means 10^(-9). nanometer is a unit to measure length.
Bharti
do you think it's worthwhile in the long term to study the effects and possibilities of nanotechnology on viral treatment?
absolutely yes

how to know photocatalytic properties of tio2 nanoparticles...what to do now
it is a goid question and i want to know the answer as well

for teaching engĺish at school how nano technology help us
Anassong
Do somebody tell me a best nano engineering book for beginners?
there is no specific books for beginners but there is book called principle of nanotechnology
NANO
what is fullerene does it is used to make bukky balls
are you nano engineer ?
s.
fullerene is a bucky ball aka Carbon 60 molecule. It was name by the architect Fuller. He design the geodesic dome. it resembles a soccer ball.
Tarell
what is the actual application of fullerenes nowadays?
Damian
That is a great question Damian. best way to answer that question is to Google it. there are hundreds of applications for buck minister fullerenes, from medical to aerospace. you can also find plenty of research papers that will give you great detail on the potential applications of fullerenes.
Tarell
what is the Synthesis, properties,and applications of carbon nano chemistry
Mostly, they use nano carbon for electronics and for materials to be strengthened.
Virgil
is Bucky paper clear?
CYNTHIA
carbon nanotubes has various application in fuel cells membrane, current research on cancer drug,and in electronics MEMS and NEMS etc
NANO
so some one know about replacing silicon atom with phosphorous in semiconductors device?
Yeah, it is a pain to say the least. You basically have to heat the substarte up to around 1000 degrees celcius then pass phosphene gas over top of it, which is explosive and toxic by the way, under very low pressure.
Harper
Do you know which machine is used to that process?
s.
how to fabricate graphene ink ?
for screen printed electrodes ?
