An updating algorithm for subspace tracking
G. W. Stewart · IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing · 1992
In certain signal processing applications it is required to compute the null space of a matrix whose rows are samples of a signal with p components. The usual tool for doing this is the singular value decomposition. However, the singular value decomposition has the drawback that it requires O(p/sup 3/) operations to recompute when a new sample arrives. It is shown that a different decomposition, called the URV decomposition, is equally effective in exhibiting the null space and can be updated in O(p/sup 2/) time. The updating technique can be run on a linear array of p processors in O(p) time.>
