This monograph deals with a rather universal concern—that of signal recovery. Signal recovery is a broad problem that spans numerous disciplines, and as a result there exists a rather rich general literature on the subject. A major problem results from the equally rich sets of technical terminology used in the literature. Herein the reader will find a specialized aspect of signal recovery, namely deconvolution, discussed in the language of a physical scientist who, by accident or intent, has been crossbred with a sprinkling or more of the geophysicist, computer scientist, electrical engineer, and statistician.
We have attempted to produce an entry-level monograph for physical scientists which will enable them to begin tentative use of deconvolution methods in their work.Preface.
