Just as with convolution, correlation uses two signals to produce a third signal.
Furthermore, as the autocorrelation is computed based on the source output, it is not available to the receiver. If the source output being compressed is nonstationary, the autocorrelation function will change with time. Python provides several ways to compute correlations.
