Study the statistical properties of the output response of a system when the input is wide sense stationary

  • Input Parameters:
    • Number of Samples: Use the input field to enter the total number of discrete data points that represent the signal over a certain time period.
    • Mean: Use the input field to enter the mean value of the signal, which represents its average amplitude.
    • Variance: Use the input field to enter the variance of the signal, which measures the spread or power of the signal values around the mean.
    • Channel Impulse Response: Enter the impulse response values or coefficients that describe how the channel affects the transmitted signal.
    • AR Coefficients: Specify the coefficients for the Auto-Regressive (AR) part of the ARMA model, which defines how past signal values influence the current value.
    • MA Coefficients: Specify the coefficients for the Moving Average (MA) part of the ARMA model, which defines how past noise terms influence the current value of the signal.
    • ARMA Coefficients: Specify the coefficients for the ARMA model, which combine both AR and MA effects to define how past signal values and noise terms influence the current value.
    • Noisy Sinusoidal Parameters: Specify the amplitude and frequency values for the noisy sinusoidal signal if it is selected from the 'Choose Input Type' dropdown.

  • Steps:

    a. When the system is LTI:

  • 1. Generate the WSS Signal: Click the “Generate WSS” button to create a WSS signal has statistical properties (like mean and autocorrelation) that do not change with time shifts.
  • 2. Generate the Channel Impulse Response: Click the “Generate CIR” button to generate the impulse response values or coefficients.
  • 3. Generate Output Signal when System is LTI: Click the “Generate Output” button to perform the convolution of the input WSS signal with the LTI channel coefficients. The resulting signal is the output.
  • 4. Check Auto-correlation for the Input Signal: Click the “Check Auto-correlation for Input” button to measure the similarity between the input WSS signal and a time-shifted version of itself.
  • 5. Check Auto-correlation for the Output Signal: Click the “Check Auto-correlation for Output” button to measure the similarity between the output signal and a time-shifted version of itself.
  • b. When the LTI system is modeled as AR, MA, or ARMA:

  • 1. Generate the WSS Signal: Click the “Generate WSS” button to create a WSS signal with statistical properties (such as mean and autocorrelation) that do not change with time shifts.
  • 2. View Equivalent Channel Impulse Response: Click the “Estimate CIR Coefficients” button to generate the equivalent impulse response values or coefficients.
  • 3. Generate Output Signal when System is LTI: Click the “Generate Output” button to perform the convolution of the input WSS signal with the LTI channel coefficients. The resulting signal is the system output.
  • 4. Check Auto-correlation for the Input Signal: Click the “Check Auto-correlation for Input” button to measure the similarity between the input WSS signal and a time-shifted version of itself.
  • 5. Check Auto-correlation for the Output Signal: Click the “Check Auto-correlation for Output” button to measure the similarity between the output signal and a time-shifted version of itself.
