autocorrelation function C code for full signal

Hi: im interested in finding autocorrelation function for a whole signal instead of a frame only of a signal. i have been refered to a post in year06 (Autocorrelation function, Java or C code) regarding the autocorrelation for a frame of a signal, and i tried to modify the C code for finding the ...

construction of a signal given its autocorrelation sequence

Hello! My question relates to DSP theory: suppose that i have an autocorrelation sequence in a closed form formula. This autocorrelation sequence may correspond to many different signals. My question is how can i construct a signal whose autocorrelation is the given one? Anyone expert? ...

autocorrelation matrix

I'm trying to copmute the autocorrelation matrix of array outputs and suspect i may be doing something wrong. I'm confident that i'm getting the right result for vectors but when my signal is a matrix it all goes wrong. Looking at the examples below can anyone say if they are correct? e.g. If ...

Random numbers with exacty zero autocorrelation

Hi all, I'm trying to simulate a small sample, say 15 numbers, of white noise. But due to chance, the autocorrelation is not exactly 0. Of course the standard deviation is also not exacty 1 but I can fix that. Is there transformation to get rid of the unwanted autocorrelation?? Many thanks, ...

Autocorrelation

Hi, I am using an autocorrelation function to calculate the period of a signal. It is a signal which is periodic. My problem is that there are some parts with big amplitudes and some part with small amplitudes. The disadvantage of the autocorrelation is that the big amplitudes are dominant a...

Basics of Spectral Density and Autocorrelation Function

Autocorrelation function, Java or C code

Does anyone have any optimized Java or C code for an autocorrelation function. It is my first time needing to do autocorrelation and it seems straight forward enough to be able to write the code myself, but due to the amount of iterations it would be wise to ask for code that already has it's ...

order of autocorrelation/ASDF and interpolation?

autocorrelation with 0 lag for LPC in speex library

autocorrelation negative values

Autocorrelation versus Cross-correlation

So far I've written a very straightforward program to calculate autocorrelation in a signal and also a crude envelope follower to ap...

Autocorrelation matrix with matlab

Power Spectrum from Autocorrelation vs. FFT

I have two questions: 1) Is there a difference b/w the terms 'power spectrum' and 'power spectral density'? They both seem to indicate power vs. frequency. 2) Suppose you are given a random sampled data sequence x[n], and you have to find its power spectrum. - Can we find the spectrum by ...

Re: Newbie, heart data analysis - detecting peaks?

Is autocorrelation of real sequences an homomorphic system?

I am working over estimation of fundamental frequency and spectral shift estimation, using autocorrelations and cepstral analysis. The Cepstral analysis is an homomorphic system, is possible to calculate as: X(w) = FFT[ x(n) ] c(n) = IFFT[ log |X(w)| ] The autocorrelation function is possi...

Re: regarding white noise

In reality, how do people measure autocorrelation function?

Hello, I'm looking for a spreading code that I can output from a microcontroller (PIC). The sequence must have low autocorrelation with a good merit factor. It should be a long sequence of between 4000 and 20000 and does not have to be done with a LFSR (shift register) since I have lots of ...
