Forward/backward prediction solution for adaptive noisy FIR filtering

An important and hard problem in signal processing is the estimation of parameters in the presence of observation noise.In this paper, adaptive finite impulse response （FIR） filtering with noisy input-output data is considered and two developed bias compensation least squares （BCLS） methods are proposed.By introducing two auxiliary estimators, the forward output predictor and the backward output predictor are constructed respectively.By exploiting the statistical properties of the cross-correlation function between the least squares （LS） error and the forward/backward prediction error, the estimate of the input noise variance is obtained; the effect of the bias can thereafter be removed.Simulation results are presented to illustrate the good performances of the proposed algorithms.
