Fourier Transforms

• Following analogies can be seen:

Periodic in time ↔ Discrete in Frequency

Aperiodic in time ↔ Continuous in Frequency

Continuous in Time ↔ Aperiodic in Frequency

Discrete in Time ↔ Periodic in Frequency

More general transforms

• Two more transforms are introduced in order to generalise Fourier transforms for both continuous and discrete-time domain signals

• To understand their region of operation it is important to recognise that both CTFT and DTFT only operated on one limited part of the whole complex plane (plane of complex values)

• CTFT operates on the frequency axis, i.e. line s=0 from the complex plane s=s+j W (i.e. s=W).

• DTFT operates on the frequency circle, i.e. curve r=1 from the complex plane z=rejw (i.e. z=ejw ).

From Laplace to Z-Transform

Signal Filtering Convolution

Convolution

• Gives the system input – system output relationship for LTI type systems (both DT and CT).

Systemx(t) y(t)

x(n) y(n)

Impulse Response of the System

• Let h(n) be the response of the system to d(n) impulse type input (i.e. Impulse Response of the System)

• we note this as ( )n h n

LTI Systemd(n) h(n)

Time-invariance

• For LTI system, if than

(this is so called time-invariance property of the system)

( )n h n ( )n k h n k

LTI Systemd(n-k) h(n-k)

Linearity

• Linearity implies the following system behavior:

LTI Systemx(n) y(n)

LTI Systemax(n) ay(n)

LTI Systemx1(n)+ x2(n) y1(n)+y2(n)

Linearity and Time-Invariance

• We can now combine time-invariance and linearity:

LTI SystemSd(n-k) Sh(n-k)

LTI SystemSx(k)d(n-k) Sx(k)h(n-k)

Convolution Sum

• I.e., if than• and:

• i.e. system output is the sum of lots of delayed impulse responses (i.e. responses to individual, scaled impulse signals which are making up the whole DT input signal)

• This sum is called CONVOLUTION SUM• Sometimes we use to denote convolution operation, i.e.

( )n h n ( )n k h n k

y n x k h n k

y n x k h n k x n h n

Convolution Sum for CT

• Similarly, for continuous time signals and systems (but a little bit more complicated)

• The above expression basically describes the analogue (CT) input signal x(t) as an integral (i.e. sum) of an infinite number of time-shifted and scaled impulse functions.

Convolution in t domain ↔ Multiplication in f domain

Part 2 – Random SignalsRandom signals – unpredictable type of

signals ( … well, more or less).

• Moments of random signals – mx, rxx(m)

• Autocorrelation ↔ PSD• Filtering Random Signals –Spectral

Factorisation Equations (in three domains)• Deconvolution and Inverse Filtering• Minimum and Non-minimum phase

systems/filters

Signal Classification• Deterministic signals

– can be characterised by mathematical equation

• Random (Nondeterministic, Stochastic) signals– can not be characterised by mathematical equation– usually characterised by their statistics

Random (Nondeterministic, Stochastic) signals can be further classified as:

• Stationary signals– if their statistics does not change with time

• Nonstationary signals – if their statistics changes with time

Signal Classification

• Wide Sense Stationary (random) signals – random signals with constant signals statistics up to a 2nd order

• Ergodic (random) signals – random signals whose statistics can be measured by Time Averaging rather then Ensemble Averaging (i.e. expectation of the ergodic signal is its average)

• For simplicity reasons, we study Wide-Sense Stationary (WSS) and Ergodic Signals

1st Order Signal Statistics

• Mean Value m of the signal x(n) is its 1st order statistics:

1lim ...

x Nn N

E x n x n x p x dxN

If mx is constant over time,we are talking about stationary signal x(n).

Expected value of x(n)(E – expectation operator)

Single waveform averaging,so signal is ergodic (no need for ensemble averages).

more general eq.

• Autocovariance of the signal is the 2nd order signal statistics:

• It is calculated according to:

where * denotes a complex conjugate in case of complex signals

• For equal lags, i.e. k=l, the autocovariance reduces to variance

2, ...xx x xc k l E x k x l x p x dx

2, xx xc k k

2nd Order Statistics

• Variance s2 of the signal is:

• Variance can be considered as some kind of measure of signal dispersion around its mean.

22 2 x x x xE x n x n E x n

Analogies to Electrical signals

• Two zero-mean signals, with different variances

0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50-1.5

mx – mean – DC component of electrical signal

mx2 – mean squared – DC

powerE[x2(n)] – mean square –

total average powersx

2 – variance – AC power

sx – standard deviation – rms

Autocorrelation

• This is also a 2nd order statistics of signal and is very similar (in some cases identical) to autocovariance

• Autocorrelation of the signal is basically a product of signal and its shifted version:

where m=l-k.

• Autocorrelation is a measure of signal predictability – correlated signal is one that has redundancy (it is compressible, e.g. speech, audio or video signals)

1, lim

r k l E x k x l x k x k mN

Autocorrelation

• for m=l-k we sometimes use notation rxx(m) or even rx(m) instead of rxx(k,l), i.e.

1, lim

r k l E x k x l x k x k mN

r m r m E x k x l

E x k x k m x k x k mN

Autocorrelation and Autocovariance

• For zero mean, stationary signals those two quantities are identical:

where mx = 0

• Also notice that the variance of the zero-mean signal then corresponds to zero-lag autocorrelation:

( ) ( )

xx xx x x

c m c k l E x k x l

E x k x l E x k x k m r m r m

2, 0 0xx xx xx xc k k c r

Autocorrelation

• Two important autocorrelation properties:

• rxx(0) is essentially a signal power so it must be larger than any other autocorrelation of that signal (other way of looking at this property of the autocorrelation is to realise that the sample is best correlated with itself).

Example (Tutorial 1, Problems 2, 3)

Random phase family of sinusoids:

A and wk are fixed constants and q is a uniformly distributed random variable (i.e. equally likely to have any value in the interval –p to p).

Prove the stationarity of this process, i.e.

a) Find the mean and variance values (should be const.)

b) Find the autocorrelation function (ACF) (should only depend on time lag value m, otherwise const.)

Power Spectral Density (PSD)

• Power Spectral Density is the Discrete Time Fourier Transform of the autocorrelation function

• PSD contains power info (i.e. distribution of signal power across the frequency spectrum) but has no phase information (PSD is “phase blind”).

• PSD is always real and non-negative.

j j mxx xx xx

R e R r m e

White Noise• White noise signal has a perfectly flat power spectrum

(equal to the variance of the signal s2).

• Autocorrelation of white noise is a unit impulse with amplitude sw

2 – white noise is perfectly uncorrelated signal

(not realisable in practice, we usually use pseudorandom noise with PSD almost flat over a finite frequency range)

Filtering Random Signals

• Filter scales the mean value of the input signal.• In time domain the scaling value is the sum of the

impulse response.• In frequency domain the scaling value is the frequency

response of the filter at w=0.

Is used to process WSS signal with PSD:

Inverse Filters

• Consider the deconvolution problem as represented on the figure below:

• Our task is to design a filter which will reconstruct or reconstitute the original input x(n) from the observed output y(n).

• The reconstruction may have the arbitrary gain A and a delay of d, hence the definition of the required inverse filter is:

H(z)x(n)

H-1(z)y(n) Ax(n-d)

1 dH z H z Az

Inverse Filters• The inverse system is said to ‘equalise’ the amplitude

and phase response of H(z), or to ‘deconvolve’ the output y(n) in order to reconstruct the input x(n).

H(z)x(n)

H-1(z)y(n) Ax(n-d)

Inverse Filters - Problem

• If H(z) is a non-minimum phase system, the zeros outside the unit circle become poles outside the unit circle and the inverse filter is unstable !!!

H(z)x(n)

H-1(z)y(n) Ax(n-d)

Noise Whitening

• With inverse filtering x(n) does not have to be a white random sequence but the inverse filter H0

-1(z) has to produce the same sequence x(n).

• For noise whitening, input x(n) has to be a white random sequence as well as output of H0

-1(z), u(n) but sequences x(n) and u(n) are not the same.

Deconvolution using autocorrelation

• Consider the filtering process again:

• The matrix equation to be solved in order to estimate the impulse response h(k) before attempting the deconvolution is given on the next slide:

yx xr k r k h kh(k)x(n) y(n)

• using matrix notation:

• The aim is to obtain coefficients b(0), b(1), …, b(L) which can be done by inverting the matrix Rxx.

• This matrix is known as autocorrelation matrix and can be used as important 2nd order characterisation of random signal.

yx xr R b

• Solution of the equation from the previous slide:

is obviously given with:

• Important to note is the structure of autocorrelation matrix Rx.

1 x yxb R r

yx xr R b

Toeplitz matrices

• If Ai,j is an element of the matrix in i-th row and j-th column then Ai,j=ai-j.

• Another important DSP operation – convolution also has strong relation to Toeplitz type matrix, called convolution matrix.

Convolution matrix

• To form the convolution matrix we need to represent the convolution operation in vector form.

• For example, the output of the FIR filter of length N can be written as:

where x is a vector of input samples to a filter and h is a vector of filter coefficients (impulse response in case of FIR filter)

• The above equation represents the case where x(n)=0 for n<0.

T Th x=x h

y n h k x n k

Decomposition of Autocorrelation Matrix

• The Toeplitz structure of autocorrelation matrix is used in diagonalisation of the autocorrelation matrix – this is the important process of decomposition of the autocorrelation matrix in the form:

here: L – diagonal matrix containing the eigenvalues of R

Q – modal matrix containing the eigenvectors of associated with eigenvalues in L

-1 TR Q Q Q Q

White noise

• What would be the form of the autocorrelation matrix for the case of white noise signal?

• Assuming ideal white noise sequence, i.e. perfectly uncorrelated signal, its autocorrelation is a unit impulse with amplitude sw

• The autocorrelation matrix is in this case diagonal (all non-diagonal elements are zero).

More on minimum and non-minimum phase systems

• Non-minimum phase systems (sometimes also called mixed-phase systems) are the systems with some of its zeros inside the unit circle and the remaining zeros outside the unit circle.

• If all of its zeros are outside the unit circle, non-minimum phase system is called a maximum phase system.

• The minimum, non-minimum and maximum phase systems can also be recognised by their phase characteristics.

• The phase characteristic of the minimum phase system has a zero net phase change between w=0 and w=p frequencies, while the non-minimum phase system has non-zero phase change between those frequencies.

More on minimum and non-minimum phase systems

• Maximum phase system has the maximum phase change between w=0 and w=p frequencies amongst all possible systems with the same amplitude response.

Example (Tutorial 2, Problem 4)

A zero-mean stationary white noise x(n) is applied to a filter with a transfer function:

Find all filters that can produce the same PSD as the above filter. Are those filters minimum or maximum phase filters?

Same PSD would be obtained using filter H0(z):

H0(z) has two zeros 0.5 and 1/3 = 0.333333, both inside the unit circlei.e. this is a minimum phase filter

0.5 3z zH z

has poles at z=2 and z=3, both outside the unit circlei.e. this is a maximum phase filter

Best filters for the task in hand

• Wiener Filter and Equation• Finding the minimum of the cost function

(MSE) = MMSE• Steepest Descent algorithm• LMS and RLS algorithms• Optimal and Adaptive Filter Configurations

(i.e. applications)

Optimal and Adaptive Filters• Optimal filters are the “best” filters for the particular

task. We use knowledge about the signals to design those filters and apply them to the task.

• Adaptive Filters change their coefficients to improve their performance for the given task. They are not fixed and can therefore change their (statistical) properties over time.

• Adaptive Filters may not be optimal but are constantly striving to become optimal

Optimal (Wiener) Filter Design

• System Identification problem:

• We want to estimate the impulse response h(n) of the “unknown” discrete-time system.

• We can use the equation for the cross-correlation between the filter input and output to obtain the estimate for h(n).

h(n) = ?x(n) y(n)

ˆyx xx R R h

1ˆxx yx h R R

• Equation

is also known as Wiener-Hopf equation

• Using this equation we have actually estimated (or designed) a filter with the impulse response close (or equal) to the impulse response of the unknown system.

• This type of optimal filter is also known as Wiener filter.

1ˆxx yx h R R

• We can approach the problem of designing the Wiener filter estimate of the unknown system in a slightly different way. Consider a block diagram given below:

• A good estimate of the unknown filter impulse response h(n) can be obtained, if the difference/error signal between two outputs (real and estimated system) is minimal (ideally zero).

Sx(n) y(n) e(n)

• We use the following notation:d(n) – output of the unknown system (desired signal)y(n) – output of the system estimatex(n) – input signal (same for both systems)e(n) – error signal, e(n)= d(n) – y(n)

• For e(n)→0, we expect to achieve a good estimate of the unknown system, i.e.:

Sx(n) y(n) e(n)

h n h n

• Wiener filter design is actually a much more general problem

• desired signal d(n) does not have to be the output of the unknown system

Sx(n) y(n) e(n)

• Another Wiener filter estimation example:

• Rather than minimising current value of the error signal - e(n), we can choose more effective approach – minimise the expected value of the square error – mean square error (MSE) function.

• Function to be minimised (cost function) is therefore MSE function defined as:

MSE Surface• E[e2(n)] represents the

expected value of squared filter error e(n), i.e. mean-square error (MSE).

• For the N coefficients filter this is an N dimensional surface with Wiener-Hopf solution positioned at the bottom of this surface (i.e. this is the minimum error point)

• We can plot it for the case of 2-coefficient filter (more than that - impossible to draw in 2D).

The Steepest Descent Algorithm

• The Steepest Descent method iteratively estimates the solution to the Weiner-Hopf equation using a method called gradient descent.

• This minimization method finds a minima by estimating the gradient of the MSE surface and forcing the step in the opposite direction of the gradient.

• The basic equation in gradient descent is:

21 h E e n n nh h

Step size parameter Gradient vector that makes hn+1(k) approach hopt

• Notice that the expression for the gradient has already been obtained in the process of calculating Wiener filter coefficients, i.e.:

• This is a significant improvement in our search for more efficient solutions – coefficients are now determined iteratively and no inverse of the autocorrelation matrix is needed.

• We still need to estimate autocorrelation matrix Rxx and crosscorrelation vector Rdx (for every iteration step !!!)

• Further simplification of the algorithm can be achieved by using the instantaneous estimates of Rxx and Rdx.

AR Process

Estimating the future samples of the signal.

Applications: Linear Predictor

• Assuming that the signal x(n):• is periodic • Is steady or varies slowly over time

• the adaptive filter will can be used to predict the future values of the desired signal based on past values.

• When x(n) is periodic and the filter is long enough to remember previous values, this structure with the delay in the input signal, can perform the prediction.

• This configuration can also be used to remove a periodic signal from stochastic noise signals.

Example

• Have a look into Tutorials 3 and 4 for examples of each discussed configuration.

Adaptive LMS Algorithm Implementation

• LMS algorithm can easily be implemented in software. Main steps of this algorithm are:

1. Read in the next sample, x(n), and perform

the filtering operation with the current version of the coefficients.

2. Take the computed output and compare it with the expected output, i.e. calculate the error.

3. Update the coefficients (obtain the next set of coefficients) using the following computation.

• This algorithm is performed in a loop so that with each new sample, a new coefficient vector, hn+1(k) is created.

• In this way, the filter coefficients change and adapt.

Adaptive LMS Algorithm Implementation

• Before the LMS algorithm “kicks in” we also need to initialise filter coefficients; the safest option is to initialise them all to zero.

PSD Estimation and Signal Modelling Techniques

Part 4 – PSD Estimation

There are more ways to find PSD of the signal

• Nonparametric techniques (periodogram and correlogram)

• Parametric Techniques (AR, MA and ARMA models)

• Yule-Walker Equations and Signal Predictors

Approaches to PSD estimation

• Classical, Non-parametric Techniques – based on Fourier Transform– robust, require no previous knowledge about the data– assume zero data values outside the data window -results are

distorted, resolution can be low– not suitable for short data records

• Modern, Parametric Techniques – include a priori model information concerning the spectrum to be estimated.

• Modern, Non-parametric methods – use singular value decomposition (SVD) of the signal to separate correlated and uncorrelated signal components for an easier analysis

Non-parametric PSD estimation techniques (DFT/FFT based)

• PSD is estimated directly from the signal itself, with no previous knowledge about signal

• Periodogram:– Based on the following formula

• Correlogram:– Based on the following formula

Periodogram and Correlogram

results obtained with those two estimators should coincide

• variations on the basic periodogram approach are usually used in practice

Blackman-Tukey method

• Since correlation function at its extreme lag values is not reliable (less data points enter the computation) it is recommended to use lag values of about 30%-40% of the total length of the data

• Blackman-Tukey is windowed correlogram given by:

w(n) is the window with zero values for |m|>L-1• also, L<<N

j j mBT xx

R e w m r m e

Bartlett Method

• This is an improved periodogram method (note that previously discussed, Blackman-Tukey is a correlogram method)

• Bartlett’s method reduces the fluctuation of the periodogram by splitting up the available data of N observations into K=N/L subsections of L observations each.

• Spectral densities of produced K periodograms are then averaged.

Parametric PSD estimation techniques (DFT based)

• use a priori model information about the spectrum to be estimated

Steps for parametric spectrum estimation

1. Select a suitable model for the procedure. This step may be based on:

- a priori knowledge of the physical mechanism that generates the random process.

- trial and error, by testing various parametric models.

(if wrong model is selected, results can be worse than when using non-parametric methods for PSD estimation)

2. Estimate the (p,q) order of the model (from the collected data and/or from a priori information).

3. Use collected data to estimate model parameters, coefficients.

So how do we get the signal PSD from the estimated model?

• If the white noise signal w(n) is the input to our model (i.e. x(n)=w(n)) the output signal y(n) is a WSS (wide sense stationary) signal with PSD given as:

Statistical Signal ModellingYule-Walker Equations

• In statistical signal modelling problem of determining the model coefficients boils down to solving a set of nonlinear equations called Yule Walker equations.

• Next couple of slides show how those equations are obtained starting from the general expression for ARMA model

• Assuming a0=1 we have:

k k kk k k

a y n k y n a y n k b x n k

Yule-Walker Equations

• Multiplying both sides of the ARMA equation with y(n-i) and taking the expectation we have:

• Since both x(n) and y(n) are jointly wide sense stationary processes, we can rewritte the last part of this equation using the following reasoning:

y k y kk k

r i a r k i b E x n k y n i

k kk k

E y n y n i E a y n k y n i E b x n k y n i

• i.e.

E x n k y n i E x n k x m h n i m

E x n k x m h n i m

n k h n i m

y k y x kk k

r i a r k i b h k i

• Further, for causal h(n) we can obtain the standard form of Yule-Walker equations
