I have an integral 1/(a^2-x^2) wrt x. If you use partial fractions we get (1/2a) * ln [ (x+a)/(x-a) ] +c and zero initial conditions gives c=0 however, this is a standard integral and should be (1/a)arctanh(x/a) How to get to that stage. I know of course arctanh(x)=(1+x)/(1-x) when I use this the sign is wrong.

Hi, I have some (quite old) network analyzer software source code which creates amazingly accurate results with PC sound devices. Basically it outputs some reference to line out while sampling its own output at the right channel and the two port response at the left channel. When using (cyclic) noise patterns as reference everything is fine because any latency is cancelled by the sam...

Hi all, I have received a transmission which consists of a series of PN sequences. I recorded at 8*10^6 SPS (8 MSPS) and wish to perform a matched filter on it. The transmission binary sequence is 1*10^6 bits long and I have just been informed that it was transmitted at a rate of 1,016,118.24682 bits/sec which seems like a very strange chip rate to pick but unfortunately this is beyond my ...

Hi, I am looking at a Goldcode transmitted from a LEO satellite and want to perform a matched filter on it. The problem is there is a significant amount of doppler (20kHz) which degrades the performance of the matched filter significantly. If I have a chunk of this signal (quadrature sampled) what would be a good approach to negate the affects of the doppler? Any input will be much apprec...

Hi all, My knowledge of biquad filter coefficients isn't great but from what I've experienced, they change based on sampling rate. but I've bumped into these two examples of hilbert transforms online and neither takes sampling rate into account. Are they okay to use or are they just based on 44.1kHz? Thanks, Matt // hilbert quadrature filter hilbertBiquad(x0) { x1 = biq

Hello, The following example from dsprelated.com shows the design of Sinc filter with the following parameters. The link of the example as below; https://www.dsprelated.com/freebooks/sasp/Example_1_Low_Pass_Filtering.html With the Matlab command fftshift the frequency response of the filter is centered at 0 frequency which is 256 the frequency bin. My question is, how can I move the c...

I sent this to Rick, but thought maybe a wider reading would be beneficial. I'm designing a CIC interpolating filter (N = 3, M = 1, R = 15 if it matters) and I came to a realization I hadn't had before and haven't ever heard anyone else mention. That often means there's something badly wrong with it, but I don't see it. Let's start with the traditional implementation:

If you have say a speed loop for a motor and an inner current loop, what spec should the inner loop have relative to the outer? I am assuming the...

If you have say a speed loop for a motor and an inner current loop, what spec should the inner loop have relative to the outer? I am assuming the inner current loop should have a much higher bandwidth otherwise it will interfere with the outer loop. Is this how it is usually done?
