Thank you for the clarification. It has helped tremendously! I'm a little unsure about how the autocorrolation is calculated. For the calculation of the autocorrolation with lag i, x(n)x(n-i) is looped and summed through from n = 0 to the length of the original signal. This summation is then divided by the length of the signal (I'm assuming this is what expected value means?). i is then increased from 1 to p (model order) to create an array of autocorrolations with different lags. Am I understanding this correctly?
Thanks again for all the help. Kind Regards, Robin On Sun, 2018-09-09 at 13:01 -0700, Timothy B.
