Some Mathematical Methods for Spectrum Estimation

  • Chapter
  • 342 Accesses

Abstract

In these lectures we state the spectrum estimation problem (Section 5) and develop periodogram (Section 6) and maximum entropy (Section 7) methods used for its solution. The two methods are really general approaches for dealing with the problem, and most spectrum estimation algorithms fall into one or the other of these categories. Our presentation is decidedly mathematical, but our bibliography contains references for many of the specific engineering and statistical algorithms derived from the techniques outlined herein.
