System identification problems are always challenging to address in applications that involve long impulse responses, especially in the framework of multichannel systems. In this context, the main goal of this review paper is to promote some recent developments that exploit decomposition-based approaches to multiple-input/single-output (MISO) system identification problems, which can be efficiently solved as combinations of low-dimension solutions. The basic idea is to reformulate such a high-dimension problem in the framework of bilinear forms, and to then take advantage of the Kronecker product decomposition and low-rank approximation of the spatiotemporal impulse response of the system. The validity of this approach is addressed in terms of the celebrated Wiener filter, by developing an iterative version with improved performance features (related to the accuracy and robustness of the solution). Simulation results support the main theoretical findings and indicate the appealing performance of these developments.
