An adaptive lattice structure for noise-cancelling applications

Abstract

This paper describes an adaptive filter structure which may be used in multi-channel noise-cancelling applications. The proposed structure differs from those presented previously in that it incorporates a lattice filter framework, rather than tapped-delay-lines. The successive orthogonalization provided by the lattice offers advantages in adaptive convergence rate which cannot be achieved with tapped-delay-lines. In the sections below, we present an explicit description of the general noise-cancelling lattice structure, together with the appropriate adaptive algorithms.
