convol - convolution

### Sequence d'appel

  `[y]=convol(h,x)`
  `[y,e1]=convol(h,x,e0)`

### Parametres

- `x,h` :input sequences (`h` is a "short" sequence, `x` a "long" one)
- `e0` : old tail to overlap add (not used in first call)
- `y` : output of convolution
- `e1` : new tail to overlap add (not used in last call)

### Description

calculates the convolution `y= h*x` of two discrete sequences by using the fft. Overlap add method can be used.

USE OF OVERLAP ADD METHOD: For x=[x1,x2,...,xNm1,xN] First call is [y1,e1]=convol(h,x1); Subsequent calls : [yk,ek]=convol(h,xk,ekm1); Final call : [yN]=convol(h,xN,eNm1); Finally y=[y1,y2,...,yNm1,yN]

### Exemples

    x=1:3;
    h1=[1,0,0,0,0];h2=[0,1,0,0,0];h3=[0,0,1,0,0];
    x1=convol(h1,x),x2=convol(h2,x),x3=convol(h3,x),
    convol(h1+h2+h3,x)
    p1=poly(x,'x','coeff')
    p2=poly(h1+h2+h3,'x','coeff')
    p1*p2
