function y = zilany2014_ffgn(N, tdres, Hinput, noiseType, mu, sigma)
%ZILANY2014_FFGN Fast (exact) fractional Gaussian noise and Brownian motion generator
% Usage: Y = zilany2014_ffGn(N, tdres, Hinput)
%
% Input parameters:
% N : is the length of the output sequence.
% tdres : is the time resolution (1/sampling rate)
% Hinput : is the "Hurst" index of the resultant noise (0 < H <= 2). For 0 < H <= 1,
% the output will be fractional Gaussian noise with Hurst index H. For
% 1 < H <= 2, the output will be fractional Brownian motion with Hurst
% index H-1. Either way, the power spectral density of the output will
% be nominally proportional to 1/f^(2H-1).
%
% zilany2014_ffGn(...) returns a vector containing a sequence of fractional Gaussian
% noise or fractional Brownian motion. The generation process uses an FFT
% which makes it very fast. This method is based on an embedding of the
% covariance matrix in a circulant matrix.
%
%
% ZILANY2014_FFGN accepts the following optional parameters:
%
% 'noiseType' is 0 for fixed fGn noise and 1 for variable fGn. [default = 1]
%
% 'mu' is the mean of the noise. [default = 0]
%
% 'sigma' is the standard deviation of the noise. [default = 1]
