Is there a graphical summary of which modulation technique to use in communication systems using Visible Light Communication techniques?
I am currently looking at various papers written (some listed at the bottom) that discuss how laser pulses can be modulated to send encoded messages to a receiver for communication systems. The more I ...

Photo Multiplier Tube (PMT) and charge sensitive pre-amplifier
I have an H7195 assembly type Photo Multiplier Tube (PMT) used to be tested for single photon measurement. I would like to use the dynode output to check the spectrum by connecting to a charge ...

Fraunhofer diffraction problem in Python: How to interpret discrete Fourier transform (DFT) spectrum?
I have a periodic phase grating consisting of lenslets along the x-direction, invariant in y. I want to use python to calculate the far-field (Fraunhofer) diffraction pattern that one gets when ...

How to convert a wave from Amplitude time to Amplitude Frequency domain? Regarding Gravitational waves strain data
I have read that on applying FFT on gravitational wave strain we can bring Amplitude time domain to Amplitude-frequency domain. But when I apply this conversion on the data I had I get this curve

Linear transformation of real and analytic signal
Suppose you have one real-valued signal $s(t)$ and another the real-valued signal $r(t)$ related to $s(t)$ by a linear integral transformation with a real kernel $k$ such that $r(t) = \int dt'\, k(t-t'...

Is there a Bayesian theory of deterministic signal? Prequel and motivation for my previous question
This is a prequel to my question:
What's the probability distribution of a deterministic signal or how to marginalize dynamical systems?
Clearly my question looks at the same time fairly ...

What's the probability distribution of a deterministic signal or how to marginalize dynamical systems?
In many signal processing calculations, the (prior) probability distribution of the theoretical signal (not the signal + noise) is required.
In random signal theory, this distribution is typically a ...

Discrete Fourier transform for periodic signal?
From the Signal and System textbook, by Oppenheim, I learned that the discrete-time Fourier transform can be written as
$$
x[n]=\frac{1}{2\pi}\int_{2\pi}X(e^{j\omega})e^{j\omega n}d\omega
$$
$$
X(e^{...

Can anybody explain about phase shift and phase spectrum terms in case of multidimensional signal?
I know about phase of a 1D signal, but when I move into higher dimensions like 2D or 3D etc, it becomes headache to grasp the concept.
What do the terms "phase shift" and "phase spectrum" mean in ...

Why can't we use the Neyman-Pearson likelihood ratio directly?
If you have a bunch of events and would like to choose a cut to distinguish background and signal, you can take the likelihood ratio
$$
\lambda(\vec x) = \frac{f(\vec x| s)}{f(\vec x| b)}
$$
and the ...
