Abstract :
Weighting functions for autocorrelation sequences are discussed in most signal processing textbooks. The standard design method is to convolve a classic window with itself. This method guarantees non-negative power spectral estimates, but it leads to suboptimal performance. In this paper we will present approaches to designing optimal autocorrelation windows. The optimization problems were formulated both in terms of quadratic programming and linear programming
