Convolution and Correlation
F = F { f } and G = F { g }, then
1. hx
()
=
fxgx x
()()
d
is projection of g on f
−∞
2. hx
()
=
fx gx
()(
− ′
xx
)
d ′ is convolution of g with f.
−∞
3. hx
()
=
fx gx
()(
′ −
xx
)
d ′ is the correlation of g with f .
−∞
We can think of convolution as a sliding projection but notice that g ( x )
becomes g (− x ) in the integral and so is mirrored about the x origin. If
H = F { h } = FG , we have case (ii) in the Fourier domain. For case (iii), H = FG *
where the asterisk (*) denotes complex conjugate. A graphical illustration of
correlation can be found in Figures A.4 and A.5.
