Description Usage Arguments Details Value References See Also Examples

This function simulates data from a CCC-GARCH process

1	simulateCCC(R, a0, A, B, nobs, ncut=1000)

`R`	a constant conditional correlation matrix.
`a0`	a vector of constants in the GARCH part.
`A`	a matrix of ARCH parameter.
`B`	a matrix of GARCH parameter.
`nobs`	the number of observations to be simulated.
`ncut`	the number of initial entries to be discarded. Default is 1000.

If the ARCH and GARCH parameter matrices, A and B, are set as non-diagonal, the corresponding DGP allows for interactions in conditional variances (see Nakatani and Ter\"asvirta (2009) for instance).

For estimating a CCC-GARCH model, estimateCCC is available.

This function returns a list with the following components.

`z`	a matrix of the simulated standardized residuals
`h`	a matrix of the simulated conditional variances.
`eps`	a matrix of the simulated time series with CCC-GARCH errors.
