The problem of separating n linearly superimposed uncorrelated signals and determing their mixing coe cents is reduced to an Eigenvalue problem which involves the simultaneous diagonalisation of two symmetric matrices whose elements are measureable time delayed correlation functions. The diagonalisation matrix can be determined from a cost function whose number of minima is equal the number of degenerate solutions. Our approach o ers the possibility to separate also nonlinear mixtures of signals.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
