A soft-constrained recursive-like adaptive noise canceller

The adaptive adjustment algorithm for a prior art recursive-like noise canceller must incorporate a constraint that prevents convergence to the useless trivial solution. This constraint can also prevent convergence to the best attainable solution. An alternative to the prior-art hard-constrained recursive-like canceller, that "softens" the constraint by making it adaptive, is proposed.
