To me that > sounds as adaptive as something like LMS.It always finds the solution in a number of steps that can be calculated from the size of the problem. I don't really agree that a Toeplitz solver (which is the kernal of Levinson-Durbin) tunes a set of parameters. It iteratively build a solution from successive partial solutions in a fixed number of iterations. Bob -- "Things should be described as simply as possible, but no simpler." A. Einstein
Levinson-Durbin Adaptive Filter....How?

OK, I'm still being a bit thick! What would anyone recommend as a simple test signal that I could use to put through the L-D block in simulink and what should I expect as the output? If I have only one signal can I put that through the L-D? I know that the LD solves for a number of equations/polynomials. So in simulink, if I only select output A, I can have a scaler as an input, ie the first vlaue of my signal. Or I can buffer the signal and input, say the first 5 samples and get out 5 values. I think these then are the 'filter' coefficients. But if I select to ouput K, I need to have a vector going in, so I really don't know what K is all about?! I've run a test using a ramp input. If I input one value at a time, then A always outputs 1. I was thinking that A should be the next value in the input signal and should also be a ramp, but if A is the filter coefficients then, 1 convolved with the input signal.... hmm just gives the input signal value? Is that what is supposed to happen, not the next value in the input signal? Maybe it works better if the input and thus output is a vector (window of smaples)? However, the prediction error, follows the input exactly.... say the input is 3 then the error is 3 on the same iteration. The signal(s) I really want to put through this are blood velocity flows..... obtained from a couple of arteries behind the eye. Thank you for all your help.
