Images obtainable with this system have serious speckle noise. Two nonlinear processing methods are applied to reduce the speckle noise. One method is to average the intensity images over the parameter of the array elements used for laser light transmission. The other is to apply a Gaussian low-pass filter to the averaged image after taking its logarithm. Their usefulness was examined by computer simulation and it was shown that almost speckle-free imaging is achievable with little effects on image resolution.","PeriodicalId":131323,"journal":{"name":"1996 IEEE Digital Signal Processing Workshop Proceedings","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122285148","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This approach leads to bounds on the eigenvalues of the correlation matrix which characterize the performance of LMS algorithms, and suggestions for possibly improved nonlinear adaptive filtering algorithms.","PeriodicalId":131323,"journal":{"name":"1996 IEEE Digital Signal Processing Workshop Proceedings","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129072019","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One popular technique exploits dithering and sign bit processing: here the band-limited analog signal is dithered by the addition of a discrete-time reference signal, which is then clipped to 1 bit; the resulting antipodal binary sequence is then used to obtain an estimate of the autocorrelation and spectra of the signal. We extend the notion to cross-moments of arbitrary orders and signals; this problem arises in several applications, such as radio astronomy and laser spectroscopy. We show that if the reference signal is stochastic, it must be uniformly distributed, and if it is non-random, it must again be uniformly distributed in a sense described. Closed form expressions are obtained for the variance of the cross-moments estimated from the resulting sign bit sequence. We also consider the M-level quantization scheme. The theory is corroborated by simulations.","PeriodicalId":131323,"journal":{"name":"1996 IEEE Digital Signal Processing Workshop Proceedings","volume":"67 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129181579","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The chaos detection test is decomposed into two sub-tests, detecting respectively the presence of fractality and nonlinearity in the signal.
