Abstract

In this paper we consider the performance of incremental least mean square (ILMS) adaptive network when it is implemented in finite-precision arithmetic. We show that unlike the infinite-precision case, the steady-state curve, described in terms of mean square deviation (MSD) is not always a monotonic increasing function of step-size parameter. More precisely, when the quantization level is small, reducing the step-size may increase the steady-state MSD.
