This book was released on 1970 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computing time dependent power spectra is an important method for studying nonstationarities in signals. An efficient procedure for computing such spectra and displaying them immediately is requisite for effective application. The method presented is based on a date window which moves along the signal in unit increments. The spectrum is updated for each new sample. All spectra are displayed on a computer graphic terminal and the algorithm was deliberately constructed to make computer graphic display efficient. (Author).
