A new blind deconvolution method is proposed for recovering an unknown source signal, which is observed through two unknown channels characterized by non-minimum phase impulse response filters. Conventional methods cannot estimate the non-minimum phase parts. Our method is based on computing the eigenvector corresponding to the smallest eigenvalue of the input correlation matrix and using a cost function to determine the order of the impulse response filter model. Multi-channel inverse filtering with the estimated impulse responses is used to recover the unknown source signal. Sub-band processing is also used to reduce the complexity of dealing with long impulse responses such as room impulse responses. Computer simulation shows that the effectiveness of our method.
