From the frequency representation of the "overlap and save", a Weighted General Discrete Fourier Transform (WGDFT) is derived to replace the traditional Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT). The mixing matrix on each frequency bin could be estimated more precisely from WGDFT coefficients than from DFT coefficients, which improves separation performance. Simulation results verify the validity of WGDFT for frequency domain blind source separation of convolutive mixtures.展开更多

We assume the sources to be time-frequency （TF） disjoint to a certain extent. In particular, the number of sources presented at any TF neighborhood is strictly less than that of sensors. We can identify the real number of active sources and achieve separation in any TF neighborhood by the sparse representation method. Compared with the subspace-based algorithm under the same sparseness assumption, which suffers from the extra noise effect since it can-not estimate the true number of active sources, the proposed algorithm can estimate the number of active sources and their cor-responding TF values in any TF neighborhood simultaneously. An-other contribution of this paper is a new estimation procedure for the DOA of sources in the underdetermined case, which combines the TF sparseness of sources and the clustering technique. Sim-ulation results demonstrate the validity and high performance of the proposed algorithm in both blind source separation （BSS） and DOA estimation.展开更多
