To solve for the linear prediction coefficients , a(i), i=1:p, you need to
solve the Yule-Walker equation R*a=x, where R=[r(0), r(1), ... , r(p-1); r(-1), r(0), ...., r(p-2); ................................ r(1-p), r(2-p), ...., r(0)]; and x(i)=r(-i), i=1:p; with r(k) the autocorrelation at lag k. Once you have r, (using xcorr for example), form R and x, and solve either by inverting R directly or using Levinson-Durbin. I think the matlab LPC function returns the prediction error filter coefficients, b, which are related to the linear prediction coefficients via b=[1,-a(1),-a(2),.....a(p)].'. You might expect to get slightly different answers depending on how the autocorrelation sequence is calculated. Hope this helps. Henry Wijaya wrote: > Hi, is anybody familiar with LPC analysis?
