=====================================================================
In this work, a new FIR RI adaptive filtering algorithm is introduced. This algorithm
has been proposed to overcome some of the difficulties experienced with the
above-mentioned adaptive filters. The approach uses a variable step-size and the
instantaneous value of the autocorrelation matrix in the coefficient update equation
that leads to an improved performance.

Convergence analysis of the algorithm has
been presented. The ensemble-average learning curve of the RI algorithm is derived
and compared with those of the RLS and LMS algorithms. A general fast implementation
technique, which significantly reduces the computational complexity, of
the RI algorithm is presented. A robust version of the RI algorithm, which leads to
an improved performance in impulsive noise environments is presented.

Hi,

you could write \\[24pt] to end a line with 24pt vertical white space after it. I would also end the paragraph after that.

\vspace should work:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{lipsum}

\begin{document}

\lipsum[1]

% no vertical space here

\lipsum[2]

\vspace{24pt}% 24pt of vertical space here

\lipsum[3]

\end{document}
