A new method for blindly separating multiple cochannel non-Gaussian signals received by a sensor array is presented. The method is based on a cumulant-based least-squares criterion that, for identically distributed negative-kurtosis signals, is proven to be identical to the "2-2" constant-modulus (CM) cost function commonly used by CM algorithms. A computationally simple algorithm is proposed to minimize the criterion. The algorithm performs well even when the number of samples is small, thus allowing its application in dynamic environments (e.g., moving emitters). For the special case of two signals only, the minimization is obtained analytically. Simulation results are included.
