Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new method for blindly separating convolutive mixtures of non-stationary and temporally uncorrelated sources. It estimates each source and its delayed versions up to a scale factor by Jointly Diagonalizing a set of covariance matrices in the frequency domain, contrary to most existing second-order methods which require a Block Joint Diagonalization algorithm followed by a blind deconvolution to achieve the same result. Consequently, our method is much faster than these classical methods especially for higer-order mixing filters and may lead to better performance as confirmed by our simulation results.
