Widely Linear Least Squares

Together with my colleague Jens I recently stumbled across a widely linear estimation problem. More precisely, we were trying to estimate a vector $\ma{x} \in \compl^{N}$ such that $\ma{C} \cdot \begin{bmatrix}\ma{x}\\ \ma{x}^*\end{bmatrix}$ was as close as possible to a given $\ma{b} \in \compl^{M}$ for a given matrix $\ma{C} \in \compl^{M \times 2N}$. This is not […]
