Experiment: Auto Correlation and Cross Correlation: y (T) X (T) H (T)

This experiment aims to compute auto correlation and cross correlation between signals and sequences using Matlab. Auto correlation measures similarity between a signal and its time delayed version, while cross correlation measures similarity between two different signals. The experiment generates input sequences and signals, computes their auto and cross correlations, and displays the results.

Experiment: Auto correlation and Cross correlation

Aim: To compute Auto correlation and Cross correlation between signals and
sequences.
Software Required: Mat lab software
Theory:

Difference between convolution and correlation


Theoretically, convolution is linear operations on the signal or signal
modifiers, whereas correlation is a measure of similarity between two
signals.
Convolution

Convolution is a mathematical operation used to express the relation


between input and output of an LTI system. It relates input, output and
impulse response of an LTI system as

y(t)=x(t)*h(t)
Where y (t) = output of LTI
x (t) = input of LTI
h (t) = impulse response of LTI

Correlation
Correlation is a measure of similarity between two signals. The general
formula for correlation is

There are two types of correlation:


 Auto correlation
 Cross correlation
Auto Correlation Function

It is defined as correlation of a signal with itself. Auto correlation function is


a measure of similarity between a signal & its time delayed version.

Cross Correlation Function

Cross correlation is the measure of similarity between two different signals.

Correlations of sequences:
It is a measure of the degree to which two sequences are similar. Given two
real-valued sequences x(n) and y(n) of finite energy,
Convolution involves the following operations.
1. Shifting
2. Multiplication
3. Addition
These operations can be represented by a Mathematical Expression as
follows:

The index l is called the shift or lag parameter


Program Code:
clc;
close all;
clear all;
% two input sequences
x=input('enter input sequence');
h=input('enter the impulse sequence');
subplot(2,2,1);
stem(x);
xlabel('n');
ylabel('x(n)');
title('input sequence');
subplot(2,2,2);
stem(h);
xlabel('n');
ylabel('h(n)');
title('impulse sequence');
% cross correlation between two sequences
y=xcorr(x,h);
subplot(2,2,3);
stem(y);
xlabel('n');
ylabel('y(n)');
title(' cross correlation between two sequences ');
% auto correlation of input sequence
z=xcorr(x,x);
subplot(2,2,4);
stem(z);
xlabel('n');
ylabel('z(n)');
title('auto correlation of input sequence');
% cross correlation between two signals
% generating two input signals
t=0:0.2:10;
x1=3*exp(-2*t);
h1=exp(t);
figure;
subplot(2,2,1);
plot(t,x1);
xlabel('t');
ylabel('x1(t)');
title('input signal');
subplot(2,2,2);
plot(t,h1);
xlabel('t');
ylabel('h1(t)');
title('impulse signal');
% cross correlation
subplot(2,2,3);
z1=xcorr(x1,h1);
plot(z1);
xlabel('t');
ylabel('z1(t)');
title('cross correlation ');
% auto correlation
subplot(2,2,4);
z2=xcorr(x1,x1);
plot(z2);
xlabel('t');
ylabel('z2(t)');
title('auto correlation ');

Result: Auto correlation and Cross correlation between signals and


sequences is computed.
Output: enter input sequence [1 2 5 7]
enter the impulse sequence [2 6 0 5 3]
