deconv

Deconvolution and polynomial division.

📝 Syntax

• [q, r] = deconv(b, a)

📥 Input argument

• a - row or column vectors

• b - row or column vectors

📤 Output argument

• q - quotient: row or column vector

• r - remainder: row or column vector

📄 Description

[q, r] = deconv(b, a) performs deconvolution on vectorb by vector a using long division.

It returns the quotient q and remainderr such that b = conv(a, q) + r.

In the context of polynomial coefficients, deconvolving vectorsb and a is akin to dividing the polynomial represented byb by the polynomial represented by a.

💡 Example

b = [1; 2; -1];  % Dividend (x^2 + 2x - 1)
a = [1; 1];      % Divisor (x + 1)

[q, r] = deconv(b, a)
