Hello all,
Is there any built-in function in MATLAB to generate a Gaussian noise with a specific covariance matrix R (colored noise), not necessarily the identity matrix (white noise)?
Thanks

There's MVRND, if you have the Stats Toolbox.
Otherwise, you can just do
sqrtm(R)*randn(size(R,2),1);

If R is close to singular, it can be mis-perceived as having some negative eigenvalues (and hence as not being psd) due to numerical imprecision.
However, if your R is close to singular, it really means you're taking the covariance of have some redundant variables - some of them are approximately linear combinations of the others - and should get rid of them.

I have two matrices, and I found the eigenvalue of both of them: one of them has all positive eigenvalues, but the other has some negative eigenvalues. I guess the second one is close to singular as you said. But even when I try the first one in mvrand(Mu,Sigma), I still get the same error.
For the matrix with negative eigenvalues, how to eliminate the redundant variables?
