I generate some coefficents for a filter and can inspect the frequency response as following:
N = 5000;
data = cumsum(randn(N,1));
t = 252;
a = 2 / (t+1);
b = repmat(1-a,1 ,N).^(1:N);
b = b ./ sum(b);
a = 1;
ma = filter(b, a, data);
figure;plot(data); hold all; plot(ma, 'r');
figure;freqz(b,1);
[h,w] = freqz(b,1);
I now explain my problem. I am now in the situation where I have a frequency response (i.e. the vector "h") and know nothing else.
I would like to estimate from this my original "b" (the filter coefficents) to allow me to estimate my variable "t".
I thought I could use invfreqs.m (or invfreqz.m) to do this, but Im afraid I dont know how.
n = 10;
m = 0;
[bNew,aNew] = invfreqz(h,w,n,m);
sys = tf(bNew,aNew)
x1 = [0: 1/(size(b,2) -1) : 1];
x2 = [0: 1/(size(bNew,2) -1) : 1];
figure;plot(x1,b); hold all; plot(x2,bNew, 'r');
When I inspect the final plot, I would expect to see the red line (bNew) as a good approximation to b. It is not. not even close.
Clearly I am doing something very wrong. Please could someone with experince of how this function works, explain my mistake.
many thanks!
