description The Recent developments in sensor technology; human centered computing and robotics have brought to light new classes of multidimensional data which are naturally represented as quaternion three and four-dimensional vector-valued processes. Such signals are readily modeled as real normal vectors in R3 and R4; however; it has become obvious that there are advantages in processing multidimensional data in division algebras (quaternion domain). The progress in the statistics of quaternion variable, particularly augmented statistics and widely linear modeling; has opened up a new front of research in channel equalization, vector sensor modeling and system identification. However, prediction gain, tracking ability and convergence speed of quaternion adaptive filters still need to be improved due to the fixed step size of those types of algorithms. Choosing the right value of step size is very important for the adaptation process of the algorithm. There is a tradeoff between the convergence speed and the missadjustment of the system. Using large step size value will produce high convergence speed and high missadjustment while using small step size value will produce slow convergence speed and low missadjustment. since in real scenario the input signal power does not remain constant, that will change the step-size according the changes of the input signal of the algorithm which increase the tradeoff between the convergence speed and the missadjustment. This changing will cause noise amplification and affects the convergence speed. In this thesis, a new quaternion gradient based adaptive algorithm for FIR adaptive filter is developed.
