Blind signal separation of convolutive mixtures
Paul David Baxter, John G. McWhirter · 2004
A novel algorithm is described for the blind separation of signals which have been mixed in a convolutive manner. It involves an initial process of strong decorrelation and spectral equalisation, based entirely on second order statistics. This is followed by the identification of a hidden paraunitary matrix which necessitates the use of higher (fourth) order statistics. The hidden paraunitary matrix is built up as a carefully chosen sequence of elementary paraunitary matrices.
