Construct autocorrelation Matrix in Matlab & Python

Auto-correlation, also called series correlation, is the correlation of a given sequence with itself as a function of time lag. Cross-correlation is a more generic term, which gives the correlation between two different sequences as a function of time lag. Given two sequences and , the cross-correlation at times separated by lag i is given … Read more

Why Cholesky Decomposition ? A sample case:

Matrix inversion is seen ubiquitously in signal processing applications. For example, matrix inversion is an important step in channel estimation and equalization. For instance, in GSM normal burst, 26 bits of training sequence are put in place with 114 bits of information bits. When the burst travels over the air interface (channel), it is subject … Read more

Matrix Algebra for Signal Processing

Key focus : Essential matrix algebra: formation of matrices, determinants, rank, inverse & transpose of matrix and solving simultaneous equations. I thought of making a post on Cholesky Decomposition, which is a very essential technique in digital signal processing applications like generating correlated random variables, solving linear equations, channel estimation etc.., But jumping straight to … Read more
