| Summary: | An enhanced affine projection algorithm (APA) is proposed to improve the filter performance in aspects of convergence rate and steady-state estimation error, since the adjustment of the input-vector number can be an effective way to increase the convergence rate and to decrease the steady-state estimation error at the same time. In this proposed algorithm, the input-vector number of APA is adjusted reasonably at every iteration by comparing the averages of the accumulated squared errors. Although the conventional APA has the constraint that the input-vector number should be integer, the proposed APA relaxes that integer-constraint through a pseudo-fractional method. Since the input-vector number can be updated at every iteration more precisely based on the pseudo-fractional method, the filter performance of the proposed APA can be improved. According to our simulation results, it is demonstrated that the proposed APA has a smaller steady-state estimation error compared to the existing APA-type filters in various scenarios.
