Question

Consider a real random variable X with zero mean and variance σ2
X . Suppose that we
cannot directly observe X, but instead we can observe Yt := X + Wt, t ∈ [0, T ], where T > 0 and
{Wt : t ∈ R} is a WSS process with zero mean and correlation function RW , uncorrelated with X.
Further suppose that we use the following linear estimator to estimate X based on {Yt : t ∈ [0, T ]}:
ˆXT =
Z T
0
h(T − θ)Yθ dθ,
i.e., we pass the process {Yt} through a causal LTI filter with impulse response h and sample the
output at time T . We wish to design h to minimize the mean-squared error of the estimate.
a. Use the orthogonality principle to write down a necessary and sufficient condition for the
optimal h. (The condition involves h, T , X, {Yt : t ∈ [0, T ]}, ˆXT , etc.)
b. Use part a to derive a condition involving the optimal h that has the following form: for all
τ ∈ [0, T ],
a =
Z T
0
h(θ)(b + c(τ − θ)) dθ,
where a and b are constants and c is some function. (You must find a, b, and c in terms of
the information given in the question.)
c. Suppose that {Wt : t ∈ R} is white noise with power spectral density value σ2
W . Find the
optimal h in this case, and write down an expression for the optimal estimate ˆXT in terms of
T , {Yt : t ∈ [0, T ]}, and SNR := σ2
X /σ2
W . Comment on how the optimal estimator behaves
as T → ∞ or SNR → ∞.
