I Question about ARMA process: Changing a Stochastic Process into a Transfer Function

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on converting an ARMA process into a transfer function. A participant questions the correctness of their equation, receiving feedback that the powers of z are off by one due to single-step signal delays. Another contributor suggests using z^{-1} for delays instead of z, providing a corrected equation for the transfer function. The exchange highlights the importance of understanding time indexing in stochastic processes. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the nuances of transforming ARMA processes into transfer functions accurately.

TL;DR Summary
I want to change arma process into transfer function, I have done it but I am unsure if it is correct or not
hello everyone, I have a question about stochastic process (ARMA process) that looks like this :

I would like to change it into a transfer function, so the final result looks like this :

My question is, is this equation correct? if it is not correct, what should I change for this equation? any response is really appreciated, thx.

I think that's not exactly right, but it's a good try. The right side has single-step signal delays of 1, 2, and 3. So your powers of ##z## (on one side or the other) are off by 1. (I am assuming that the index in your variables are related to time such that k-1 is a step backward in time, a one step delay, ##1/z##)
I am not an expert at this, but here is what I would do. I prefer to work with the ##z^{-1}## single-step delay, rather than the ##z## look into the future, but that is just a matter of preference. I would get:
##W(z)(1-1.08z^{-1}+0.81z^{-2})=V(z)(z^{-1}+0.1z^{-2}-0.9z^{-3})##
So ##W(z)/V(z) = (z^2+0.1z-0.9)/(z^3-1.08z^2+0.81z)##.

hahaha thank you, that explanation is what I have been missing until now 😁

Seemingly by some mathematical coincidence, a hexagon of sides 2,2,7,7, 11, and 11 can be inscribed in a circle of radius 7. The other day I saw a math problem on line, which they said came from a Polish Olympiad, where you compute the length x of the 3rd side which is the same as the radius, so that the sides of length 2,x, and 11 are inscribed on the arc of a semi-circle. The law of cosines applied twice gives the answer for x of exactly 7, but the arithmetic is so complex that the...
Is it possible to arrange six pencils such that each one touches the other five? If so, how? This is an adaption of a Martin Gardner puzzle only I changed it from cigarettes to pencils and left out the clues because PF folks don’t need clues. From the book “My Best Mathematical and Logic Puzzles”. Dover, 1994.
