Title:
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING PERIODIC SIGNAL OR CYCLOSTATIONARY SIGNAL
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2005300539
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To precisely analyze a periodic signal or cyclostationary signal.

In one representative embodiment, multiple ensembles of samples of a periodic or cylcostationary signal are processed in a time aligned manner. The sampling rate of the processing system is adjusted so that an integer number of sampling intervals equals the period of the signal. A cyclic counter 103 is programmed to reset according to the integer number. During operation, the cyclic counter is incremented when each sample is received. Continuous operation of the cyclic counter with the capturing of samples enables precise time alignment between ensembles of samples. Specifically, the beginning of a discrete ensemble is identified by a reset of the cyclic counter. Because each ensemble is time aligned, further processing (e.g., coherent averaging) may occur without post-processing to time-shift each sample to achieve the time alignment.
