eigenvalues of the matrix R ( z ). In deference to [22], we shall call l i ( i ¼ 1, ... , k ) the
i th circularity coefficients of z and we write L ¼ L ( z ) ¼ diag( l i ) for the k k matrix
of circularity coefficients. In [54], it has been shown that circularity coefficients are the
canonical correlations between z and its conjugate z . It is easy to show that circularity
coefficients are singular values of the symmetric matrix K ( z ) W B ( z ) P ( z ) B ( z ) T (called
the coherence matrix in [54]), where B ( z ) is any square-root matrix of C ( z ) 1
(i.e., C ( z ) 1
¼ B ( z ) H B ( z )). This means that there exists a unitary matrix U such that
symmetric matrix K ( z ) has a special form of singular value decomposition (SVD),
called Takagi factorization , such that K ( z ) ¼ ULU T . Thus, if we now define matrix
W [ C
kk as W¼ B H U ,where B and U are defined as above, then we observe
that the transformed data s ¼W H z satisfies
C ( s ) ¼ U H BC ( z ) B H U ¼ I
and P ( s ) ¼ U H BP ( z ) B T U ¼ L
that is, transformed RV s has (strongly-)uncorrelated components. Hence the matrix
W is called the strong-uncorrelating transform (SUT) [21, 22].
Note that
L ¼ 0 ,P¼ 0 ,R¼ 0 :
As in the univariate case, circularity coefficients are invariant under the group of
invertible linear transformations { z ! s ¼GzjG [ C
kk nonsingular }, that is,
l i ( z ) ¼ l i ( s ). Observe that the set of circularity coefficients { l i ( z ), i ¼ 1, ... , k }of
the RV z does not necessarily equal the set of circularity coefficient of the variables
{ l ( z i ), i ¼ 1, ... , k } although in some cases (for example, when the components
z 1 , ... , z k of z are mutually statistically independent) they can coincide.
2.3 COMPLEX ELLIPTICALLY SYMMETRIC (CES) DISTRIBUTIONS
k has k -variate circular CN distribution if its real and imaginary
part x and y have 2 k -variate real normal distribution and a 2 k 2 k real covariance
matrix with a special form (2.6), that is, P ( z ) ¼ 0. Since the introduction of the circu-
lar CN distribution in [24, 61], the assumption (2.6) seems to be commonly
thought of as essential—although it was based on application specific reasoning—
in writing the joint pdf f ( x , y )of x and y into a natural complex form f ( z ). In fact,
the prefix “circular” is often dropped when referring to circular CN distribution,
as it has due time become the commonly accepted complex normal distribution.
However, rather recently, in [51, 57], an intuitive expression for the joint density of
normal RVs x and y was derived without the unnecessary second-order circularity
assumption (2.6) on their covariances. The pdf of z with CN distribution is uniquely
parametrized by the covariance matrix C and pseudo-covariance matrix P , the case of
vanishing pseudo-covariance matrix, 0, thus indicating the (sub)class of circular
CN distributions.
