A novel robust proportionate affine projection (AP) algorithm is devised for estimating sparse channels, which often occur in network echo and wireless communication channels. The newly proposed algorithm is realized by using the maximum correntropy criterion (MCC) and the data reusing scheme used in AP to overcome the identification performance degradation of the traditional PAP algorithm in impulsive noise environments. The proposed algorithm is referred to as the proportionate affine projection maximum correntropy criterion (PAPMCC) algorithm, which is derived in the context of channel estimation framework. Many simulation results were obtained to verify that the PAPMCC algorithm is superior to early reported AP algorithms with different input signals under impulsive noise environments.
