% CXCORR Circular Cross Correlation function estimates. 
% CXCORR(a,b), where a and b represent samples taken over time interval T
% which is assumed to be a common period of two corresponded periodic signals. 
% a and b are supposed to be length M row vectors, either real or complex.
% 
% [x,c]=CXCORR(a,b) returns the length M-1 circular cross correlation sequence c
% with corresponded lags x.
%   
% The circular cross correlation is:
%         c(k) = sum[a(n)*conj(b(n+k))]/[norm(a)*norm(b)]; 
% where vector b is shifted CIRCULARLY by k samples.
%
% The function doesn't check the format of input vectors a and b!
%
% For circular covariance between a and b look for CXCOV(a,b) in
