1. A system for processing electronic signals, comprising:
- a multi-output module that provides a reference gain output signal and one or more higher gain output signals based on an input signal; and
a parametric compensator that independently responds to functional parameters of the one or more higher gain output signals to provide a compensation error signal,wherein the input signal is modified based on the compensation error signal.

Abstract
Provided are high-resolution parametric signal restoration systems, and applications thereof. Such systems include a multi-output module and a parametric compensator. The multi-output module provides a reference gain output signal and one or more higher gain output signals based on a single input signal. The parametric compensator independently responds to functional parameters of the one or more higher gain output signals to provide a compensation error signal. The single input signal is modified based on the compensation error signal.

18. A high-resolution signal restoration system for processing signals from a measurement instrument, comprising:
-
a first combining module that combines an input signal and a compensation error signal to provide a combined signal; a first amplifier, having a first gain that provides a first amplified signal based on the combined signal; a second amplifier, having a second gain that is different from the first gain, that provides a second amplified signal based on the combined signal; and a feedback that generates the compensation error signal based on the second amplified signal, the feedback including a first direct current (DC) restoration module having a first time constant and configured to reduce a DC component of the second amplified signal to provide a first processed signal, a second DC restoration module having a second time constant that is different from the first time constant and configured to reduce the DC component of the second amplified signal to provide a second processed signal, and a feedback output module that provides either the first processed signal or a combination of the first and second processed signals as the compensation error signal based on a threshold.
