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.
How does matched filter increase SNR?
The matched filter improves the SNR by reducing the noise's spectral bandwidth to that of the wavelet, and in addition, reduces the noise within the wavelet's bandwidth by the shape of the wavelet's spectrum.
How do you calculate matched filter output?
The output of the matched filter has a unique global maximum value of E at t0; for any other t, we have y(t)<y(t0)=E. The impulse response s(t0−t)=s(−(t−t0)) of the matched filter for time t0 is just s(t) "reversed in time" and moved to the right by t0.
How do you find the matched filter response?
Impulse Response of Matched Filter
In the time domain, the output of filter receiver 'h(t)' can be obtained through applying the IFT or inverse Fourier transform of the frequency response function, H(f). We know the equation of H(f) = GaS* (f) e^-j2πft1, substitute this in the above equation.
