  • Signal processor
    Patent number: 3935437
    Abstract: A signal processor enables the examination of the spectral content of an input signal within a selected analysis bandwidth f.sub.a about an adjustable reference frequency f.sub.r. A multi-segment digital filter in the processor provides sharply reduced levels outside the selected analysis bandwidth by first multiplying the effective data rate in a multiple-register integrating filter and then restoring the data rate in subsequent digital filters.
