Synopsis
The ?eld of multirate signal processing has witnessed a great deal of progress and an increasingly wide range of applications since the publication of the ?rst textbook by Crochiere and Rabiner [tel]. However, this progress has been mainly in the area of deterministic systems with emphasis on perfe- reconstruction and/or orthogonal systems. This book introduces a statistical theory for extracting information from signals that have di?erent sampling rates. This new theory generalizes the conventional (deterministic) theory of multirate systems beyond many of its [url] such as spectrum estimation, time-delay estimation and sensor fusion in the realm of multirate signal processing. I have arrived at the theory presented here by integrating concepts from diverse areas such as information theory, inverse problems and theory of - equalities. The process of merging a variety of concepts of di?erent origin results in both merits and shortcomings. The former include the fresh and - di?erentiated view of an amateur, providing scope of application. The latter include a lack of in-depth experience in each of the original ?elds. Granted, this may lead to gaps in continuity, however it goes without saying that a complete theory can seldom be achieved by one person and in a short time. My goal in writing this book has been to inspire the reader to initiate his own research and add to the theory of multirate statistical signal processing.
