A signal is transmitted by two channels and the noisy outputs are measured. The blind channel identification problem is to recover the transfer functions of the channels from the outputs and the noise information. Using second order statistics, and assuming some restrictions, the problem can be formulated as an eigenvalue problem for the covariance matrix of the two outputs placed in one vector. This covariance matrix has four Toeplitz blocks. The vector of the channel coefficients is the eigenvector corresponding to the smallest eigenvalue. Exploiting the displacement rank of the matrix, a fast algorithm of \textit{W. F. Trench} [SIAM J. Matrix Anal. Appl. 9, No. 2, 181-193 (1988; Zbl 0647.65017)] is used to solve this problem. The complexity is \(O(4Nn)\) with \(N\) the number of iterations and \(n\) the number of filter coefficients.
