Notes on Recursive Least Squares (RLS)

Method of Least Squares

• Assuming a multiple linear regression model, the method attempts to choose the tap weights to minimize the sum of error squares.
• When the error process is white and zero mean, the least-squares estimate is the best linear unbiased estimate (BLUE)
• When the error process is white Gaussian zero mean, the least-squares estimate achieves the Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) for unbiased estimates, hence a minimum-variance unbiased estimate (MVUE)

Recursive Least Squares

• Allows one to update the tap weights as the input becomes available.
• Can incorporate additional constraints such as weighted error squares or a regularizing term, [commonly applied due to the ill-posed nature of the problem].
• The inversion of the correlation matrix is replaced by a simple scalar division.
• Initial correlation matrix provide a mean to specify regularization.
• The fundamental difference between RLS and LMS: 
• The step-size parameter $\mu$ in LMS is replaced by $\mathbf{\Phi}^{-1}(n)$, the inverse of the correlation matrix of the input $\mathbf{u}(n)$, which has the effect of whitening the inputs.
• The rate of convergence of RLS is invariant to the eigenvalue spread of the ensemble average input correlation matrix $\mathbf{R}$
• The excessive mean-square error converges to zero if stationary environment is assumed and the exponential weight factor is set to $\lambda=1$.
