On Separating Interleaved Pulse Trains
Ralph O. Schmidt · IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems · 1974
A transform is defined wherein a signal which consists of a large number of independent pulse trains can be analyzed and deinterleaved according to pulse repetition interval (PRI) even though constituent trains may occur as follows: 1) grouped in "scan" bursts, 2) as synchronized n-tuplets, 3) incomplete due to "dropouts," 4) as staggered trains, or 5) with harmonically related PRI's. Computer simulations displaying some of the features of the transform are included. Detectability criteria are discussed.
