Read the posting guide. We have no way to know what you are doing unless you
show the list readers with sample data and code.
If you are wondering about Vector Autoregressive models, I don't claim any
specific experience with them, but [1] says they are linear, and I do know that
linear models respond in proportion to the magnitude of the input so you
don't learn anything useful by changing the magnitude of the input.
I have used the Kronecker delta (impulse) function before, and I have never
heard of anyone trying to ascribe a standard deviation to it... only impulse
magnitude.
