Abstract

Blind source separation (BSS) consists of recovering the statistically independent source signals from their linear mixtures without knowing the mixing coefficients. Pre-whitening is a useful pre-processing technique in BSS. However, BSS algorithms based on the pre-whitened data lack the equivariance property, one of the significant properties in BSS. By transforming the pre-whitening into a weighted orthogonal constraint condition, this paper proposes a new definition of the contrast function. In light of the constrained optimization method, various weighted orthogonal constrained BSS algorithms with equivariance property are developed. Simulations on man-made signals and practical speech signals show the proposed weighted orthogonal constrained BSS algorithms have better separation ability, convergent speed and steady state performance.
