Yes, the previous algorithm is "simple", which is a good thing. The difference is that it chooses the FFT size (N) in an optimal way, and derives the arbitrary segment length (L) accordingly. No zero-padding is necessary, so the claim "circular convolution used in it may be wrong, because we should pad zeroes in the head at initial step" is wrong and misleading. Your more-complicated algorithm, prioritizes the choice of L above the FFT size, P, (an important performance parameter). The claim that your inefficient and complicated code achieves the same result as conv(•) (as does the efficient, simple code) is not sufficient.
