Adaptive Filtering
As discussed in previous chapters, filtering refers to the linear process designed to alter the spectral content of an input signal in a specified manner. In Chapters 5 and 6, we introduced techniques for designing and implementing FIR and IIR filters for given specifications. Conventional FIR and IIR filters are time-invariant. They perform linear operations on an input signal to generate an output signal based on the fixed coefficients. Adaptive filters are time varying, filter characteristics such as bandwidth and frequency response change with time. Thus the filter coefficients cannot be determined when the filter is implemented. The coefficients...
