Masters Theses

Abstract

"This thesis investigates the possibility of using the Zadah theory and a machine type computer to design an optimum finite memory nonlinear filter for extraction of Poisson distributed signal pulses from a background of Gaussian noise. Basically the procedure involves the technique of solving simultaneous equations by the computer. We demonstrate that it is possible to find the limitation of the filter of class N₁ in terms of an absolute minimum mean square error. However, due to the capacity of the computer we do not actually determine the absolute minimum. Nevertheless we do show that the mean square error decreases with increasing memory time T"--Abstract, page ii.
