Chapter 2. Methodology for Algorithm Design
2.1. Introduction
In this chapter we describe a general procedure for choosing an algorithm and determining its performance. Then, we apply the procedure to a hypothetical but realistic problem that might be encountered in practice. In particular, we consider the design of a signal processing algorithm to estimate blood flow velocity that could be implemented in a Doppler ultrasound device. This estimation problem is also of great importance in radar, sonar, and communications. The only difference between its application to these other fields is in the physical origin of the signal of interest, leading to important physical constraints on the signal characteristics. As mentioned previously in Chapter ...
