In many applications, such as biomedical engineering, it is often required to obtain specific periodic source signals. In this paper, we propose a two-stage based approach for extracting periodic signals. At the first stage, the autocorrelation

There is a trend to develop blind or semi-blind source extraction algorithms based on second-order statistics, due to its low computation load and fast processing speed. An important and primary work is done by Barros and Cichocki, who propose an
