Quantlet: calibrLS
Description: Auxiliary routine for rLSfil Calibrates the robust LS- Filter for a given State Space model to a given relative efficiency loss in terms of the MSE in the ideal model. The state-space model is assumed to be in the following form: y_t = H x_t + v_t x_t = F x_t-1 + w_t x_0 ~ (mu,Sig), v_t ~ (0,Q), w_t ~ (0,R) All parameters are assumed known.

Usage: {b,ctrl}=calibrLS(T,Sig,H,F,Q,R,e,N,eps,itmax,aus)
Input:
T number of observations/states to be filtered by rIC
Sig n x n covariance matrix of the initial state
H m x n matrix
F n x n matrix
Q m x m variance-covariance matrix
R n x n variance-covariance matrix
e numeric; efficiency loss to attain
N integer; MC-sample size / integration grid-points
eps numeric; exactitude
itmax integer; maximal number of Iterations
aus integer; 0: no output during execution, 1: some output, 2: more output, 3: a lot of output
Output:
b T vector of clipping heights
ctrl T integer: tells if everything went well in step 1.. T (1 - 0 else)
