An augmented complex-valued extended Kalman filter (ACEKF) algorithm for the class of nonlinear adaptive filters realized as fully connected recurrent neural networks is introduced. This is achieved based on some recent developments in the so-called augmented complex statistics and the use of general fully complex nonlinear activation functions within the neurons. This makes the ACEKF suitable for processing general complex-valued nonlinear and nonstationary signals and also bivariate signals with strong component correlations. Simulations on benchmark and real-world complex-valued signals support the approach.

A complex-valued real-time recurrent learning (CRTRL) algorithm for the class of nonlinear adaptive filters realized as fully connected recurrent neural networks is introduced. The proposed CRTRL is derived for a general complex activation function of a neuron, which makes it suitable for nonlinear adaptive filtering of complex-valued nonlinear and nonstationary signals and complex signals with strong component correlations. In addition, this algorithm is generic and represents a natural extension of the real-valued RTRL. Simulations on benchmark and real-world complex-valued signals support the approach.
