# 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

I only see partial conversation and what's the question here!
what about nanotechnology for water purification
please someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think one can use nanoparticles, specially silver nanoparticles for water treatment.
Damian
what is the stm
is there industrial application of fullrenes. What is the method to prepare fullrene on large scale.?
Rafiq
industrial application...? mmm I think on the medical side as drug carrier, but you should go deeper on your research, I may be wrong
Damian
How we are making nano material?
what is a peer
What is meant by 'nano scale'?
What is STMs full form?
LITNING

Rafiq
what is differents between GO and RGO?
Mahi
what is simplest way to understand the applications of nano robots used to detect the cancer affected cell of human body.? How this robot is carried to required site of body cell.? what will be the carrier material and how can be detected that correct delivery of drug is done Rafiq
Rafiq
what is Nano technology ?
write examples of Nano molecule?
Bob
The nanotechnology is as new science, to scale nanometric
brayan
nanotechnology is the study, desing, synthesis, manipulation and application of materials and functional systems through control of matter at nanoscale
Damian
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

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
