Spectrum analyzers for studies of processes in the cosmic plasma
Abstract
Basic concepts and methods involved in the design of analyzers of space-plasma spectra are discussed. Special attention is given to analyzers based on the wave-signal transfer, parallel spectral analysis using a filter bank, and spectral analyses based on frequency transformation using the discrete Fourier transform. The outlook for the application of these analyzers in future projects is assessed.
