A long list of noise measures have been defined to measure noise in signal processing: in absolute terms, relative to some standard noise level, or relative to the desired signal level. They include: Dynamic range, often defined by inherent noise level; Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), ratio of noise power to signal power
Noise reduction is the process of removing noise from a signal. Noise reduction techniques exist for audio and images. Noise reduction algorithms may distort the signal to some degree. Noise rejection is the ability of a circuit to isolate an undesired signal component from the desired signal component, as with common-mode rejection ratio.
Array processing is a wide area of research in the field of signal processing that extends from the simplest form of 1 dimensional line arrays to 2 and 3 dimensional array geometries. Array structure can be defined as a set of sensors that are spatially separated, e.g. radio antenna and seismic arrays .
The median filter is a non-linear digital filtering technique, often used to remove noise from an image, [1] signal, [2] and video. [3] Such noise reduction is a typical pre-processing step to improve the results of later processing (for example, edge detection on an image).
Smoothing may be distinguished from the related and partially overlapping concept of curve fitting in the following ways: . curve fitting often involves the use of an explicit function form for the result, whereas the immediate results from smoothing are the "smoothed" values with no later use made of a functional form if there is one;
This output can be converted to a signal by passing it through a digital-to-analog converter. There are problems with noise introduced by the conversions, but these can be controlled and limited for many useful filters. Due to the sampling involved, the input signal must be of limited frequency content or aliasing will occur.
An encoder maps W into a pre-defined sequence of channel symbols of length n. In its most basic model, the channel distorts each of these symbols independently of the others. The output of the channel –the received sequence– is fed into a decoder which maps the sequence into an estimate of the message. In this setting, the probability of ...
Here, x i for i = 1, ...., N is the discrete-time input signal of length N, and m i is the signal output from the algorithm. The goal is to minimize H [ m ] with respect to the output signal m . The form of the function Λ {\displaystyle \scriptstyle \Lambda } determines the particular algorithm.
