Gaussian White Noise Signal<\/h2>\n

Task:<\/strong> Use Matlab to generate a Gaussian white noise signal of length L=100,000 using the randn function and plot it.<\/p>\n

Solution:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since the random variables in the white noise process are statistically uncorrelated, the covariance function contains values only along the diagonal. The matrix above indicates that only the autocorrelation function exists for each random variable. The cross-correlation values are zero (samples\/variables are statistically uncorrelated with respect to each other). The diagonal elements are equal to the variance and all other elements in the matrix are zero.<\/p>\n

Plot the histogram of the generated white noise and verify the histogram by plotting against the theoretical pdf of the Gaussian random variable. This can be achieved in a few ways.<\/p>\n

Way 1<\/p>\n

Code:<\/p>\n

\"gaussian<\/a><\/p>\n

\"white<\/a>Way 2<\/p>\n

Code:<\/p>\n

\"white<\/a><\/p>\n

\"white<\/a><\/p>\n

\"white<\/a><\/p>\n

The computed autocorrelation function has to be scaled properly. If the \u2018xcorr\u2019 function (inbuilt in Matlab) is used for computing the autocorrelation function, use the \u2018biased\u2019 argument in the function to scale it properly.<\/p>\n

Compute PSD of the above generated multi-dimensional process and average it to get a smooth plot.<\/p>\n

Code:<\/p>\n

\"how<\/a><\/p>\n

\"white<\/a><\/p>\n

The PSD plot of a white noise gives almost fixed power in all the frequencies. In other words, for a white noise signal, the PSD is constant (flat) across all the frequencies (-\u221e to + \u221e).<\/p>\n
