Blind source separation is a very known problem which refers to finding the original sources without the aid of information about the nature of the sources and the mixing process, to solve this kind of problem having only the mixtures, it is almost impossible , that why using some assumptions is needed in somehow according to the differents situations existing in the real world, for exemple, in laboratory condition, most of tested algorithms works very fine and having good performence because the  nature and the number of the input signals are almost known apriori and then the mixing process is well determined for the separation operation.  But in fact, the real-life scenario is much more different and of course the problem is becoming much more complicated due to the the fact of having the most of the parameters of the linear equation are unknown. In this paper, we present a novel method based on Gaussianity and Sparsity for signal separation algorithms where independent component analysis will be used. The Sparsity as a preprocessing step, then, as a final step, the Gaussianity based source separation block has been used to estimate the original sources. To validate our proposed method, the FPICA algorithm based on BSS technique has been used.

In the modern wars under the condition of informationalization, radar signals are generally characterized by repetitive patterns in time, so it is one important task of Radar Warning Receiver (RWR) to estimate the Pulse Repetition Interval (PRI) of all radar signals by intercepting and identifying the mixed radar signals. Because each transmitted radar signal are arbitrary in general. From the view of statistic, the transmitted radar pulse train from different radars is mutual independent. So the constituted model of RWR and radar transmitters accord with blind source separation which can separate mixed signals into pure signals. A deinterleaving method using blind source separation for estimating the PRI of each radar signals is proposed. The implementation architecture of the proposed method is given. Finally, computer simulations show the proposed method can gain good performance for the estimation of PRI of radar signals.

The blind source separation (BSS) using a two-stage sparse representation approach is discussed in this paper. We presented the algorithm based on linear membership function to estimate the unknown mixing matrix precisely, and then, the optimization algorithm based on integral to get the max value of the function is proposed. Another contribution described in this paper is the discussion of the impact of noise on the estimating the mixing matrix. Given the impact of noise, we set weights to put more emphasis on the more reliable data. Several experiments involving speech signals show the effectiveness and efficiency of this method.

In this work, the novel method of blind source separation using Bayesian Probabilistic approach is discussed for instantaneous mixtures. This work demonstrates the source separation problem which is well suited for the Bayesian approach. This work also provides a natural and logically consistent method in which prior knowledge can be incorporated to estimate the most probable solution. The distri-butions of the coefficients of the sources in the basis are modeled by a generalized Gaussian distribution (GGD) which is dependent on the sparsity parameter q. This method also utilizes prior distribution of the appropriate sparsity parameter of sources present in the mixture. Once, the prior distribution for each parameter (like mixing matrix, source matrix, sparsity parameter and error or noise covariance matrix) are defined, the Bayesian a posterior probabilistic approach using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method is exploited in estimation of a posterior distribution of mixing matrix, source matrix, sparsity parameter and covariance matrix of error. The blind source separation provides the results in the form of signal to distortion ratio (SDR), signal to artifacts ratio (SAR) and signal to interference ratio (SIR) at different SNR.
