I want to say "a system is to a signal as a function is to a variable". Indeed, I'm pretty sure that when you've gotten fully spun off into Hilbert spaces and other esoteric stuff (which I can't say that I fully understand), the above statement is pretty close if not entirely true. But before I go and say it publicly in a seminar, I want to pass it by you sharks (uh, folks) and see if ...

Hi, I'm implementing a HT with sampling freq 2 Mhz to convert a real signal to complex.. The required passband goes down all the way to 50 hz. I have a couple of questions which hopefully the experts can give me some advice. First of all. to get the required frequency response and to keep the passband ripple as low as possible, I need a large number of taps and this uses a lot of resources...


AM signal detection with Hilbert?

I need to perform detection and estimation on a signal which contains amplitude-modulated pulses. The model for the signal is y[n] = e[n] + sum(Ek[n-Tk]) where e[n] is noise, Ek[] is a pulse (product of hamming-esque window and a sinusoid), and Tk the corresponding lag. The problem is that the envelope gain, carrier frequency, and event duration are all random variables. I can visu...

Let's assume there is a certain periodic sequence m (t). Further from it calculated s(t)=[m(t)+j*hilbert(m(t))]*exp(j*2*pi*f*t). Then it is calculated it ACF r(m)=(1/(Ncorr-m))*sum(?? n=0 ?? Ncorr-1-m){conj(Vj)*Vj(n+m)}. Further in the module of this ACF the maximal peak is searched, we shall assume with number Mmax. Let's designate frequency of sampling as Fs. If I correctly und

Hello, Using " highpass | rectify | lowpass | downsample" for ages to demodulate signald, I've just found that demodulation using Hilberttransformation seems to be very easy (speaking matlab/octave): function y=demodulate( x ) y=sqrt(x.^2 + real(hilbert(x)).^2); endfunction (I implemented "hilbet" myself, using fft) That's the "how", easy ;) But I do not understand the "why".

My understanding is that you phase shift one signal by 90 degrees with a hilbert tranformer than sample - is that right? With a carrier based system you need only use sin and cos and then sample giving I and Q. The advantage appears to be that you can sample at B (bandwidth) rather than 2BHz. Can we extend this and phase shift by pi/4 and sample with 4 ADCs? In general we would get a sam...

I need to get a smooth as possible envelope of a real-time speech signal. I have tried rectification + filtering and squaring + filtering and also a Hilbert Transformer (to creat the imaginary part of a complex waveform which I can take the magnitude of) but neither of these methods appear to give a smooth envelope. Is there a tried and tested best method? Hardy

Could some one please help me in the following matter? Given a set of tap-coefficients, how can it be found that the filter is a Hilbert transformer (HT) or not? On a website (http://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/~fisher/cgi-bin/mkfscript), the phase response of a designed HT is plotted and looks like magnitude response of a half band low pass filter. However when I design a HT in matlab u...

Hi all, I am doing a simple demodulation of a sampled RF signal. I set my digitizer at a fixed 1 GS/s. I don't know what my carrier will be, but it will be less that 200MHz. The signal is pulse amplitude modulated, and I want to recover the original signal. To do this, I have applied a Hilbert transform, and then derived the magnitude which gives me a good approximation of the encoded signa...
