Linear predictors from noise

Starting from an $ARMA$ process $y(t)=W(z)e(t)=\frac{C(z)}{A(z)}e(t)$, wehere $e(t) \sim WN(0,\lambda^2)$ we know that $y(t)$ is a steady state solution and $y(t) \sim MA(\infty)$, so: $$y(t) = w_0e(t)+w_1e(t-1)+...+w_ie(t-i)+...=\sum_{i=0}^{+\infty}{w_ie(t-i)}$$

Where $w_i = f(\text{parameters of }C(z)\text{ and }A(z))$.

The predictor: $\hat{y}(t+k|t) = a_0y(t)+a_1y(t-1)+...+a_iy(t-i)+...$ can be written as: $$\hat{y}(t+k|t) = a_0[\sum_{i=0}^{+\infty}{w_ie(t-i)}] + a_1[\sum_{i=0}^{+\infty}{w_ie(t-1-i)}] + ... =$$ $$= a_0[w_0e(t)+w_1e(t-1)+...]+a_1[w_0e(t-1)+w_1e(t-2)+...] + ...$$

Arranging the terms: $$\hat{y}(t+k|t) = \beta_0 e(t) + \beta_1 e(t-1) + ... = \sum_{i=0}^{+\infty}{\beta_ie(t-i)}$$ Where: $$ \begin{align} \beta_0 = a_0w_0 \newlinwnewline \beta_1 = a_0w_1 + a_1w_1 \newline ... \end{align} $$

The predictor is computed as an infinite regression over the past values of the white noise underlying the generation of $y$: $\beta_i$ is a function of the parameters of ARMA and the predictor.

Optimal solution from noise

The optimal predictor from noise is: $$\hat{y}(t+k|t) = \sum_{i=0}^{+\infty}{w_{k+i}e(t-i)}$$

IDEA OF PROOF (complete in the notes)

It is found starting from the linear predictor: $$\hat{y}(t+k|t) = \sum_{i=0}^{+\infty}{\beta_ie(t-i)}$$

Minimizing the MSE: $$\min_{\lbrace\beta_i\rbrace}\mathbb{E}[(y(t+k)-\hat{y}(t+k|t))^2]=\min_{\lbrace\beta_i\rbrace}\mathbb{E}[(y(t+k)-\sum_{i=0}^{+\infty}{\beta_ie(t-i)})^2]$$

Considering thath $y(t)$ is an $ARMA$ it is a $MA(\infty)$, then: $$y(t)=\sum_{i=0}^{+\infty}{w_ie(t-i)} \text{ } \forall t$$ So: $$y(t+k) = \sum_{i=0}^{k-1}{w_ie(t+k-i)}+\sum_{j=k}^{+\infty}{w_ie(t+k-i)}$$

And pugging this int the MSE we find that the minimization coincides with: $$\hat{y}(t+k|t) = \sum_{i=0}^{+\infty}{w_{k+i}e(t-i)}$$
