Higher Order Spectra Analysis: A Non-Linear Signal Processing Framework

In response to the recent growth of interest in polyspectra, this timely text provides an introduction to signal processing methods that are based on polyspectra and cumulants concepts. The emphasis of the book is placed on the presentation of signal processing tools for use in situations where the more common power spectrum estimation techniques fall short. This manual will be valuable to practicing engineers who need an introduction to polyspectra from a signal processing perspective.
