Frequency shift keyed narrowband interference rejection: optimal exponential weighting factor for the RLS algorithm
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Previous work has shown that co-channel narrowband interference can limit the performance of direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) and high frequency (HF) systems. Narrowband interference (NBI) can be single tone, chirped or frequency shift keyed (FSK) in nature and numerous techniques for its removal have been proposed. Linear adaptive prediction filters based on autoregressive modelling have been suggested owing to their ability to perform in a non-stationary environment. In the FSK narrowband interference case, adaptive filters are susceptible to excess residual errors owing to instantaneous frequency step changes and the finite convergence time required for the filter to adapt to a new interference frequency. The signal degradation owing to this type of interference becomes greater in high SNR regimes and has been found to be a function of the frequency parameters of the FSK interference signal. This paper discusses the convergence and frequency tracking properties of the recursive least squares (RLS) adaptive lattice filter using a posteriori estimation errors in the presence of FSK narrowband interference. An optimal exponential weighting factor that balances convergence time and steady state error is derived for this case of NBI. Results are compared to those of the previously proposed fast converging minimum frequency error (FCMFE) RLS lattice filter.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
