Abstract
The problem considered in this paper is the following: given a symmetric sequence
which is not positive, (i.e. its Fourier transform takes on negative values), find a positive sequence
which is a good approximation to
. This problem arises, for example, when
is an estimated covariance sequence which is not positive, and a positive covariance sequence is desired. A solution to the positivity problem is given which uses state-space models and a scaled algebraic Riccati equation.
