As one of the recently proposed algorithms for sparse system identification, norm constraint Least Mean Square ( -LMS) algorithm modifies the cost function of the traditional method with a penalty of tap-weight sparsity. The performance of -LMS is quite attractive compared with its various precursors. However, there has been no detailed study of its performance. This paper presents comprehensive theoretical performance analysis of -LMS for white Gaussian input data based on some reasonable assumptions, which are reasonable in a large range of parameter setting. Expressions for steady-state mean square deviation (MSD) are derived and discussed with respect to algorithm parameters and system sparsity. The parameter selection rule is established for achieving the best performance. Approximated with Taylor series, the instantaneous behavior is also derived. In addition, the relationship between  …
