Adaptive Signal Processing: Synopsis

This document discusses adaptive signal processing. It begins by explaining that adaptive systems are devices that can adjust themselves to changing environments in order to improve performance. Adaptive signal processing deals with designing adaptive systems for signal processing applications. It then states that signal processing has become important in many fields of science and engineering. However, the characteristics of real-world signals and systems are often unknown or time-varying. Therefore, processing techniques need to be adaptive to handle unknown characteristics that may change over time. Common applications of adaptive signal processing include compression, noise and echo cancellation, channel equalization, and processing of biomedical signals.

Introduction

Signal processing deals with the extraction of information from signals. The devices that perform this
task can be physical hardware devices, specialized software codes, or combinations of both. Some
notable applications, in areas ranging from biomedical engineering to wireless communications, include
the suppression of interference arising from noisy measurement sensors, the elimination of distortions
introduced when signals travel through transmission channels, and the recovery of signals embedded in
a multitude of echoes created by multipath effects in mobile communications.

Adaptive systems

Adaptive systems are devices that adjust themselves to an ever-changing environment; the structure of
an adaptive system changes in such a way that its performance improves through a continuing
interaction with its surroundings. Its superior performance in non stationary environments results from
its ability to track slow variations in the statistics of the signals and to continually seek optimal designs.
Adaptive signal processing deals with the design of adaptive systems for signal-processing applications.
Related issues arise in control design, where the objective is to alter the behavior of a system, and lead
to the study of adaptive control strategies; the main issue is the stability of the system under feedback.

Adaptive Signal Processing

Signal processing has become an important tool in almost all fields of science and engineering. In
practice, the characteristics of signals /systems are either not known or change with time (independent
variable) due to many reasons. In some cases, like speech their very changing characteristic nature is of
utility and importance. However in cases like noise control, echo cancellation and long distance
communication, the time variant behavior of the system/ signal involved is undesirable. Therefore,
processing techniques should adapt to the unknown characteristics, which may be time invariant or
variant. Any real time processing has to be adaptive and some of the common applications are:
compression and coding, active control of noise (inside aircraft cabin and automobiles, industrial noise)
and vibration, adaptive structures and other physical quantities, communication applications like
channel equalization, acoustic and line echo cancellation, adaptive antenna arrays and adaptive
processing of biomedical signals (ECG, EEG and Evoked potential (EVP)).
