This paper relates to the blind noise separation method of time-delayed convolutive mixed signals. Since the mixed model of acoustic signals in a closed space is multi-channel, a convolutive blind signal separation method is applied and time-delayed data samples of the two microphone input signals is used. For signal separation, the mixing coefficient is calculated using an inverse model rather than directly calculating the separation coefficient, and the coefficient update is performed by repeated calculations based on secondary statistical properties to estimate the speech signal. Many simulations were performed to verify the performance of the proposed blind signal separation. As a result of the simulation, noise separation using this method operates safely regardless of convolutive mixing, and PESQ is improved by 0.3 points compared to the general adaptive FIR filter structure.

This paper deals with acoustic echo cancellation using blind signal separation method. This method does not degrade the echo cancellation performance even during double-talk. In the closed echo environment, the mixing model of acoustic signals is multi-channel, so the convolutive blind signal separation method is applied and the mixing coefficients are calculated by using the feedback model without directly calculating the separation coefficients for signal separation. The coefficient update is performed by iterative calculations based on the second-order statistical properties, thus estimates the near-end speech. A number of simulations have been performed to verify the performance of the proposed blind signal separation method. The simulation results show that the acoustic echo canceller using this method operates safely regardless of the presence of double-talk, and the PESQ is improved by 0.6 point compared with the general adaptive FIR filter structure.

This paper introduces multichannel blind source separation (BSS) and multichannel blind deconvolution (MBD) based on higher order statistics of signals from convolutive mixtures. In particular, we are concerned with the case that the number of inputs is the same as the number of outputs. Simulations for two input two output cases are carried out and their performances are assessed. One of the major applications of those sequential algorithms (BSS and MBD) is demonstrated through the fault signal detection from only a single measurement of rotating machine, which offers a certain degree of practicability in the engineering field such as machine health monitoring or condition monitoring.
