Hi,
I have a MATLAB related question. I have a periodic signal loaded into
Matlab and i am trying to estimate the Autocovariance of it by using the
xcov command.
This gives me an output that i store as a variable. I'd just like to know
if anyone knows why:
a) the xcov matrix is twice as lon...

This is just a suggestion. But a common form of detection (specially in
beamforming) is to obtain the SVD decomposition of the autocovariance
matrix of the data and create a detection paradigm based on the ratio
of the largest to the lowest eigenvalues (or the ration of the
geometric to arithm...

Yes it is.

Hello,
I am testing different OFDM Channel estimation (CE) approaches by
modelation in Simulink, and I am having a problem, that might be stupid but
is taking to much of my time without finding a solution.
My problem comes when I want to compare several methods to ideal LMMSE CE.
I know the ch...

A frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel is often modeled as
having an exponential power delay profile. I've seen this written as
pwr_dly(n) = exp(-tau*n/Ts) [1]. Tau here the rms delay spread (I
think) and Ts is the sampling interval.
I was wondering about the channel frequency response....

Hi folks.
I'm sitting here with some data recorded by a sonar. The sonar is
directed vertically, insonifying a layered sea floor. My job is to
try to estimate the reflection series for this sea floor.

random process, the autoco...
