Objectives

In recent years, adaptive filtering has found an increasing number of applications (echo cancellation in telephony, channel equalization in communication systems, denoising of bio-medical signals, ...). This course aims to discuss the basic principles, the scope of applicability, and the implementation aspects of adaptive filtering. The originality of the course resides in a multi-disciplinary treatment of the adaptive filtering problem going from the design methods (Signal Processing) to hardware implementation with embedded digital processors (Digital Electronics). A specific focus will be put on the problem of active noise control in Acoustics, a typical application of adaptive filtering.
