Tensor-based signal processing methods are usually employed when dealing with multidimensional data and/or systems with a large parameter space. In this paper, we present a family of tensor-based adaptive filtering algorithms, which are suitable for high-dimension system identification problems. The basic idea is to exploit a decomposition-based approach, such that the global impulse response of the system can be estimated using a combination of shorter adaptive filters. The algorithms are mainly tailored for multiple-input/single-output system identification problems, where the input data and the channels can be grouped in the form of rank-1 tensors. Nevertheless, the approach could be further extended for single-input/single-output system identification scenarios, where the impulse responses (of more general forms) can be modeled as higher-rank tensors. As compared to the conventional adaptive filters, which involve a single (usually long) filter for the estimation of the global impulse response, the tensor-based algorithms achieve faster convergence rate and tracking, while also providing better accuracy of the solution. Simulation results support the theoretical findings and indicate the advantages of the tensor-based algorithms over the conventional ones, in terms of the main performance criteria.
