Autocorrelation function of the output of a hard limiter with Gaussian noise plus sinusoidal input
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4371844
An expression is derived for the autocorrelation function of the output of a hard limiter whose input is stationary gaussian noise with zero mean plus independent random-phase sinusoidal signal. The output spectrum may then be evaluated. This spectrum is extremely useful in understanding the properties of a filter--limit--filter-- detect signal processor whose signal input is an actual sinusoid or when a sinusoid is used as a test signal. Some numerical values of the autocorrelation function are also given. (18 references) (auth)
