Signal filtering using orthogonal polynomials and removal of edge effects
First Claim
1. A method of filtering an input signal containing wanted signal components and unwanted signal components, comprising:
- modeling the input signal as a set of polynomials;
identifying polynomials from the set to model the unwanted signal components; and
removing the unwanted signal components from the input signal by removing the polynomials identified as modeling the unwanted signal components from the set of polynomials to thereby leave in the input signal only the wanted signal components.

Abstract
A method and device for filtering an input signal containing wanted signal components and unwanted signal components, wherein the signal is modeled as a set of polynomials. Polynomials from the set are identified to model the unwanted signal components. These unwanted signal components are removed from the input signal by removing the polynomials identified as modeling the unwanted signal components from the set of polynomials to thereby leave in the input signal only the wanted signal components. According to an alternative, polynomials from the set are identified to model the wanted signal components, and the polynomials identified as modeling the wanted signal components are outputted as an estimate of the wanted signal components substantially free from the unwanted signal components. According to another aspect, a weighting factor indicative of signal strength is determined for each polynomial and these weighting factors are summed to provide an estimate of the strength of the input signal.
