Multiple Signal Relative Entropy Spectral Estimation, David Martin Gregory Jan 1988

Multiple Signal Relative Entropy Spectral Estimation, David Martin Gregory

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Presented is a generalized derivation of the Tzannes et al. algorithm (1985) to accommodate multiple signals and also a new algorithm for implementing the Relative Entropy method for estimating the spectral densities of multisignal input data.

Chapter 2 presents several of the current methods of Relative Entropy spectral estimation which involve solving N non-linear equations simultaneously. Chapter 3 presents the multisignal derivation for the Tzannes et al. method and develops the new algorithm which solves for one unknown at a time in an iterative fashion.

The performance of this new method is compared with the Maximum Entropy and Minimum Relative …
