Discrete-time nonlinear models consisting of two linear time invariant (LTI) filters separated by a finite-order zero memory nonlinearity (ZMNL) of the polynomial type (the LTI-ZMNL-LTI model) are appropriate in a large number of practical applications. We discuss some approaches to the problem of blind identification of such nonlinear models, It is shown that for an Nth-order nonlinearity, the (possibly non-minimum phase) finite-memory linear subsystems of LTI-ZMNL and LTI-ZMNL-LTI models can be identified using the N+1th-order (cyclic) statistics of the output sequence alone, provided the input is cyclostationary and satisfies certain conditions. The coefficients of the ZMNL are not needed for identification of the linear subsystems and are not estimated. It is shown that the theory presented leads to analytically simple identification algorithms that possess several noise and interference suppression characteristics.
