What is the difference of calculating signal power that using these two methods: using moving average filter and using forgetting factor?
The conventional signal power calculation can be:
$$
P(n) = \frac{1}{N}\sum_{i=0}^{N-1}x^2(n-i)
$$
$x(n)$ is the signal. However, I have seen another method:
$$
P(n) = \lambda P(n-1) + (1-\lambda) x^2(...
