Preface
In this monograph, we combine operator techniques with state space methods
to solve factorization, spectral estimation, and interpolation problems arising in
control and signal processing. We present both the theory and algorithms with
some Matlab code to solve these problems.
A classical approach to spectral factorization problems in control theory is
based on Riccati equations arising in linear quadratic controltheory and Kalman
filtering. One advantage of this approach is that it readily leads to algorithms
in the non-degenerate case. On the other hand, this approach does not easily
generalize to the nonrational case, and it is not always transparent where the
Riccati equations are coming from.
Operator theory has developed some elegant methods to prove the existence
of a solution to some of these factorization and spectral estimation problems in a
verygeneralsetting.However,these techniques are in generalnotusedto develop
computational algorithms. In this monograph, we will use operator theory with
statespacemethodstoderivecomputationalmethods tosolvefactorization,spec-
tralestimation,andinterpolationproblems.Itis emphasizedthatourapproachis
geometric and the algorithms are obtained as a special application of the theory.
We will present two methods for spectral factorization. One method derives algo-
rithms based on finite sections of a certain Toeplitz matrix. The other approach
uses operator theory to develop the Riccati factorization method. Finally, we use
isometric extension techniques to solve some interpolation problems.
The monograph is divided into five parts. In the first part, we present some
classicalresults fromoperatortheory.This includes the Wolddecomposition,uni-
lateral and bilateral shifts, the Beurling-Lax-Halmos Theorem, and the Naimark
representation Theorem. Chapter 5 on the Naimark representation Theorem is
one of the fundamental tools that is used throughout the monograph.The reader
familiar with operator theory can skip this part and refer back to it as needed.
This part also includes some results on rational functions which are not usually
presented in elementary operator theory. The first part is self contained and is
written for someone with a minimal background in operator theory. The other
four parts aremore or less independent ofeachother, andcanbe readseparately.
There may be some cross references. However, this should not cause any major
difficulty.
In part II, we develop finite section techniques to compute the inner-outer
factorization of rational functions and solve a spectral factorization problem in
both the squareand non-squarecases.Furthermore, operatortechniques are used
to solve some sinusoid estimation problems in signal processing. In particular,
we use geometric methods to develop the Capon-Genorimus sinusoid estimation
algorithm.Finite section methods are also used to solve some sinusoid estimation
problems. Many of these techniques are based on the Levinson and Kalman-Ho
algorithm. Several examples using Matlab are given.
vi Preface
In part III, we use Riccati techniques to solve factorization and Darlington
synthesis problems. These Riccati techniques are developed from the Naimark
representationTheorem.Chapter11is devotedto theKalmanfilter.This chapter
can be read independently from the rest of the monograph. This is included to
demonstrate where the Riccati equations in control theory originally came from,
and how they can be used to solve Kalman and Wiener filtering problems.
ThefourthpartisanintroductiontopositiverealandH∞typeinterpolation
problems.Our approachis basedon extending a contractionto an isometry.Here
we do not present the set of all solutions, we just give the central solution and
corresponding state space formula. The central solution is the one that is most
widely used in applications.
The fifth part is the appendix which includes a short review of state space
techniques used throughout the monograph. We also place a special emphasis
on the Kalman-Ho algorithm, which plays a fundamental role in some of our
computationaltechniques.The last chapter is devotedto the Levinsonalgorithm.
Finally, the Gohberg-Semencul-Heinig inversion formula for a positive Toeplitz
operator is presented.
It is assumed that the reader is familiar with linear algebra, and some ele-
mentary facts from operator theory such as the projection theorem, the adjoint
of an operator and a positive operator. Our approach is geometric and we do not
relyonmeasuretheoretictechniques.Itisalsoassumedthatthe readeris familiar
with some elementary concepts fromlinear systems theory suchas controllability,
observability and state space realization. A review of some of these state space
techniques is given in the appendix. Some sections can be skipped without any
loss of continuity and the reader will be notified when this is the case. We have
alsousedthenotesattheendofthechaptertodevelopsometechnicalconnections
between our results and some of the existing theory. Finally, it is noted that we
developed our theory using Hardy spaces of functions which are analytic outside
the open unit disc. This was done mainly because these Hardy spaces are more
naturallysuitedtothefastFouriertransformalgorithminMatlabandstatespace
methods.
We hope that this monograph is beneficial to both mathematicians and en-
gineers. We believe that the operator theoretic foundation provides additional
insightintospectralfactorizationandsignalprocessing.Moreover,thisframework
may be useful for other engineering applications. Finally, the applications and
examples may provide some additional insight into other mathematical problems.
