What is the impulse response of matched filter?
3.4 The Matched Filter
Therefore, the impulse response of a filter that produces the maximum output signal-to-noise ratio is the mirror image of the message signal s(t), delayed by the symbol time duration, T.
How does a matched filter work?
In signal processing, a matched filter is obtained by correlating a known delayed signal, or template, with an unknown signal to detect the presence of the template in the unknown signal. This is equivalent to convolving the unknown signal with a conjugated time-reversed version of the template.
What are properties of matched filter?
The characteristics of matched filter include the following. The Signal to noise ratio maximization is possible even for non-Gaussian noise. The output generated by this filter is like signal energy in the nonexistence of noise. They are applicable for the detection of signals.
Is a matched filter autocorrelation?
In a simple radar ranging system, if the data contains a single “target,” the output of the matched filter (not including noise) is the autocorrelation function of the transmitted waveform, time-shifted to where the target is located in time.
