Abstract

In the sensor array signal reception system, improving the accuracy of weak-signal detection is crucial. Traditional fixed-step algorithms struggle to balance the convergence rate (CR) and low steady-state error (SSE) owing to their inherent trade-off limitations. To address this limitation, we propose a novel variable-step-size least-mean-square (VSS-LMS) algorithm based on a modified versoria function, specifically redesigned to enhance curvature characteristics. This approach establishes dynamic coupling between error statistics and step-size factors through nonlinear mapping. It derives closed-loop equations governing parameters (α, β, and γ) relative to the smoothed instantaneous error correlation function. Consequently, an adaptive feedback system is constructed to achieve real-time adjustment through optimal step-size generation. The optimal parameters (α, β, and γ) are determined through empirical enumeration and analysis of their impact on algorithmic performance. Comparative evaluations against established VSS-LMS algorithms confirm performance: the proposed algorithm accelerates convergence while maintaining a low SSE, and exhibits robust signal recovery capabilities under low-SNR conditions with diverse interference types.
