Abstract
A method, system, and computer program are provided for filtering a signal. The method, system, and computer program receive a sample of a signal being filtered and identify a bias associated with the sample. The bias includes a cushion and an increment. The method, system, and computer program also output an expected value for the sample of the signal being filtered combined with a portion of the bias. The portion of the bias is based at least partially on a size of the cushion.
Claims22
A method for filtering a signal, comprising:
- receiving a sample of the signal being filtered;
- identifying a bias associated with the sample, the bias identifying a difference between an actual value of the sample and an expected value of the sample, the bias comprising a cushion and an increment;
- identifying a portion of the bias based at least partially on a size of the cushion;
- and
- outputting the expected value of the sample combined with the portion of the bias.
An apparatus, comprising:
- an input operable to receive a signal;
- and
- a filter operable to filter the signal by:
- identifying a bias associated with a sample of the signal, the bias identifying a difference between an actual value of the sample and an expected value of the sample, the bias comprising a cushion and an increment;
- identifying a portion of the bias based at least partially on a size of the cushion;
- and
- outputting the expected value of the sample combined with the portion of the bias.
A computer program for filtering a signal, the computer program embodied on a computer readable medium, the computer program comprising computer readable program code for:
- receiving a sample of the signal being filtered;
- identifying a bias associated with the sample, the bias identifying a difference between an actual value of the sample and an expected value of the sample, the bias comprising a cushion and an increment;
- identifying a portion of the bias based at least partially on a size of the cushion;
- and
- outputting the expected value of the sample combined with the portion of the bias.
