convolving 1D filter in 1D signal

I have a filter with this eq:

GH2=4*t^2*exp(-t^2) - 2*exp(-t^2);

E2=3*sqrt(pi/2);

GHE2=GH2/sqrt(E2);

the t here is a 1*6787 array of numbers, I should convolve my 1d signal; here e(t) with this filter, each of those ts in the above eq coresponds to the t here in e(t), now for convolution I am using the folowing loop, but those ts that I am choosing for my filter make the whole calculation to be elementwise, so I cant convolve my signal with this filter.

Now my question is what should I do to make this filtering process correctly?

for i=1:m

for j=1:n

e=RF_scan(i,j,:);

t1=t(1,i);

GH2=4*t^2.*exp(-t^2) - 2*exp(-t^2);

E2=3*sqrt(pi/2);

GHE2=GH2./sqrt(E2);

e_low=conv(e,GHE2);%this part has an error that convolution is not for elementwise operations

filteredl(i,j,:)=e_low;

end

end

Hi,

For 1D convolution the two signals should be vector form while doing convolution.

If e is 1D then use Conv function .

If e is 2D then try using Conv2 function.

>>e_low=conv2(e,GHE2);

Tnx Chandra, but this problem itself is 1D and the problem is not convolution itself. I changed the way to program this entirely and fixed it.
