M$^2$-Spectral Estimation: A Relative Entropy Approach
英文摘要：
This paper deals with M$^2$-signals, namely multivariate (or vector-valued) signals defined over a multidimensional domain. In particular, we propose an optimization technique to solve the covariance extension problem for stationary random vector fields. The multidimensional Itakura-Saito distance is employed as an optimization criterion to select the solution among the spectra satisfying a finite number of moment constraints. In order to avoid technicalities that may happen on the boundary of the feasible set, we deal with the discrete version of the problem where the multidimensional integrals are approximated by Riemann sums. The spectrum solution is also discrete, which occurs naturally when the underlying random field is periodic. We show that a solution to the discrete problem exists, is unique and depends smoothly on the problem data. Therefore, we have a well-posed problem whose solution can be tuned in a smooth manner. Finally, we have applied our theory to the target parameter estimation problem in an integrated system of automotive modules. Simulation results show that our spectral estimator has promising performance.
