Spectrum estimation refers to analyzing the distribution of power or en ergy with frequency of the given signal, and system identification refers to ways of characterizing the mechanism or system behind the observed sig nal/data. Such an identification allows one to predict the system outputs, and as a result this has considerable impact in several areas such as speech processing, pattern recognition, target identification, seismology, and signal processing. A new outlook to spectrum estimation and system identification is pre sented here by making use of the powerful concepts of positive functions and bounded functions. An indispensable tool in classical network analysis and synthesis problems, positive functions and bounded functions are well and their intimate one-to-one connection with power spectra understood, makes it possible to study many of the signal processing problems from a new viewpoint. Positive functions have been used to study interpolation problems in the past, and although the spectrum extension problem falls within this scope, surprisingly the system identification problem can also be analyzed in this context in an interesting manner. One useful result in this connection is regarding rational and stable approximation of nonrational transfer functions both in the single-channel case and the multichannel case. Such an approximation has important applications in distributed system theory, simulation of systems governed by partial differential equations, and analysis of differential equations with delays. This book is intended as an introductory graduate level textbook and as a reference book for engineers and researchers.

The field's leading text, now completely updated. Modeling dynamical systems — theory, methodology, and applications. Lennart Ljung's System Identification: Theory for the User is a complete, coherent description of the theory, methodology, and practice of System Identification. This completely revised Second Edition introduces subspace methods, methods that utilize frequency domain data, and general non-linear black box methods, including neural networks and neuro-fuzzy modeling. The book contains many new computer-based examples designed for Ljung's market-leading software, System Identification Toolbox for MATLAB. Ljung combines careful mathematics, a practical understanding of real-world applications, and extensive exercises. He introduces both black-box and tailor-made models of linear as well as non-linear systems, and he describes principles, properties, and algorithms for a variety of identification techniques: Nonparametric time-domain and frequency-domain methods. Parameter estimation methods in a general prediction error setting. Frequency domain data and frequency domain interpretations. Asymptotic analysis of parameter estimates. Linear regressions, iterative search methods, and other ways to compute estimates. Recursive (adaptive) estimation techniques. Ljung also presents detailed coverage of the key issues that can make or break system identification projects, such as defining objectives, designing experiments, controlling the bias distribution of transfer-function estimates, and carefully validating the resulting models. The first edition of System Identification has been the field's most widely cited reference for over a decade. This new edition will be the new text of choice for anyone concerned with system identification theory and practice.

Digital Spectral Analysis offers a broad perspective of spectral estimation techniques and their implementation. Coverage includes spectral estimation of discrete-time or discrete-space sequences derived by sampling continuous-time or continuous-space signals. The treatment emphasizes the behavior of each spectral estimator for short data records and provides over 40 techniques described and available as implemented MATLAB functions. In addition to summarizing classical spectral estimation, this text provides theoretical background and review material in linear systems, Fourier transforms, matrix algebra, random processes, and statistics. Topics include Prony's method, parametric methods, the minimum variance method, eigenanalysis-based estimators, multichannel methods, and two-dimensional methods. Suitable for advanced undergraduates and graduate students of electrical engineering — and for scientific use in the signal processing application community outside of universities — the treatment's prerequisites include some knowledge of discrete-time linear system and transform theory, introductory probability and statistics, and linear algebra. 1987 edition.

The absence of training signals from many kinds of transmission necessitates the widespread use of blind equalization and system identification. There have been many algorithms developed for these purposes, working with one- or two-dimensional signals and with single-input single-output or multiple-input multiple-output, real or complex systems. It is now time for a unified treatment of this subject, pointing out the common characteristics of these algorithms as well as learning from their different perspectives. "Blind Equalization and System Identification" provides such a unified treatment presenting theory, performance analysis, simulation, implementation and applications. This is a textbook for graduate courses in discrete-time random processes, statistical signal processing, and blind equalization and system identification. It contains material which will also interest researchers and engineers working in digital communications, source separation, speech processing, and other, similar applications.

The techniques used for the extraction of information from received or ob served signals are applicable in many diverse areas such as radar, sonar, communications, geophysics, remote sensing, acoustics, meteorology, med ical imaging systems, and electronics warfare. The received signal is usually disturbed by thermal, electrical, atmospheric, channel, or intentional inter ferences. The received signal cannot be predicted deterministically, so that statistical methods are needed to describe the signal. In general, therefore, any received signal is analyzed as a random signal or process. The purpose of this book is to provide an elementary introduction to random signal analysis, estimation, filtering, and identification. The emphasis of the book is on the computational aspects as well as presentation of com mon analytical tools for systems involving random signals. The book covers random processes, stationary signals, spectral analysis, estimation, optimiz ation, detection, spectrum estimation, prediction, filtering, and identification. The book is addressed to practicing engineers and scientists. It can be used as a text for courses in the areas of random processes, estimation theory, and system identification by undergraduates and graduate students in engineer ing and science with some background in probability and linear algebra. Part of the book has been used by the author while teaching at State University of New York at Buffalo and California State University at Long Beach. Some of the algorithms presented in this book have been successfully applied to industrial projects.

Nonlinear System Identification: NARMAX Methods in the Time, Frequency, and Spatio-Temporal Domains describes a comprehensive framework for the identification and analysis of nonlinear dynamic systems in the time, frequency, and spatio-temporal domains. This book is written with an emphasis on making the algorithms accessible so that they can be applied and used in practice. Includes coverage of: The NARMAX (nonlinear autoregressive moving average with exogenous inputs) model The orthogonal least squares algorithm that allows models to be built term by term where the error reduction ratio reveals the percentage contribution of each model term Statistical and qualitative model validation methods that can be applied to any model class Generalised frequency response functions which provide significant insight into nonlinear behaviours A completely new class of filters that can move, split, spread, and focus energy The response spectrum map and the study of sub harmonic and severely nonlinear systems Algorithms that can track rapid time variation in both linear and nonlinear systems The important class of spatio-temporal systems that evolve over both space and time Many case study examples from modelling space weather, through identification of a model of the visual processing system of fruit flies, to tracking causality in EEG data are all included to demonstrate how easily the methods can be applied in practice and to show the insight that the algorithms reveal even for complex systems NARMAX algorithms provide a fundamentally different approach to nonlinear system identification and signal processing for nonlinear systems. NARMAX methods provide models that are transparent, which can easily be analysed, and which can be used to solve real problems. This book is intended for graduates, postgraduates and researchers in the sciences and engineering, and also for users from other fields who have collected data and who wish to identify models to help to understand the dynamics of their systems.
