    Abstract: A method, apparatus, system, and computer program product for processing low frequency signals. A communications system comprising a low frequency receiver, a denoiser, and a signal extractor. The low frequency receiver receives low frequency signals in which a communications signal is expected. The denoiser is in communication with the low frequency receiver. The denoiser denoises the low frequency signals received from the low frequency receiver. The denoising results in a generation of denoised signals. The signal extractor in communication with the denoiser. The signal extractor extracts the communications signal from the denoised signal.

    Abstract: Described is a cognitive signal processor that is implemented in a field programmable gate array (FPGA). During operation, the FGPA receives a continuous noisy signal. The continuous noisy signal is a time-series of data points from a mixture signal of waveforms having both noise and a desired waveform signal. The continuous noisy signal is linearly mapped to reservoir states of a dynamical reservoir. A high-dimensional state-space representation of the continuous noisy signal is generated by digitally combining the continuous noisy signal with the reservoir states. Notably, the continuous noisy signal is approximated over a time interval based on a linear basis function. One or more delay-embedded state signals are then generated based on the reservoir states. The continuous noisy signal is then denoised by removing the noise from the desired waveform signal, resulting in a denoised waveform signal.

    Abstract: Described is a cognitive signal processor (CSP) for signal denoising. In operation, the CSP receives a noisy signal as a time-series of data points from a mixture of both noise and one or more desired waveform signals. The noisy signal is linearly mapped to reservoir states of a dynamical reservoir. A high-dimensional state-space representation is then generated of the noisy signal by combining the noisy signal with the reservoir states. A delay-embedded state signal is generated from the reservoir states. The reservoir states are denoised by removing noise from each reservoir state signal, resulting in a real-time denoised spectrogram of the noisy signal. A denoised waveform signal is generated combining the denoised reservoir states. Additionally, the signal denoising process is implemented in software or digital hardware by converting the state-space representation of the dynamical reservoir to a system of delay difference equations and then applying a linear basis approximation.

    Abstract: Described is a neuromorphic processor for signal denoising and separation. The neuromorphic processor generates delay-embedded mixture signals from an input mixture of pulses. Using a reservoir computer, the delay-embedded mixture signals are mapped to reservoir states of a dynamical reservoir having output layer weights. The output layer weights are adapted based on short-time linear prediction, and a denoised output of the mixture of input signals us generated. The denoised output is filtered through a set of adaptable finite impulse response (FIR) filters to extract a set of separated narrowband pulses.

    Abstract: A method for removing an extracted RF signal to examine a spectrum of at least one other RF signal includes receiving a mixture signal by an ADC. The mixture signal includes a plurality of separate signals from different signal sources. The mixture signal is digitized by the ADC. A first digitized signal and a second digitized signal are generated that are the same. The first digitized signal is delayed a predetermined time delay and the second digitized signal is processed in a neuromorphic signal processor to extract an extracted signal. The predetermined time delay corresponds to a delay embedding in the neuromorphic signal processor. A phase delay and amplitude of the extracted signal is adjusted based on a phase delay and amplitude of the first digitized signal. An adjusted extracted signal is cancelled from the first digitized signal to provide an input examination signal for examination.

    Abstract: Described is a cognitive blind source separator (CBSS). The CBSS includes a delay embedding module that receives a mixture signal (the mixture signal being a time-series of data points from one or more mixtures of source signals) and time-lags the signal to generate a delay embedded mixture signal. The delay embedded mixture signal is then linearly mapped into a reservoir to create a high-dimensional state-space representation of the mixture signal. The state-space representations are then linearly mapped to one or more output nodes in an output layer to generate pre-filtered signals. The pre-filtered signals are passed through a bank of adaptable finite impulse response (FIR) filters to generate separate source signals that collectively formed the mixture signal.

    Abstract: A method of and apparatus for detecting signal features including amplitude, phase and timing of recognizable input signals in a frequency band or spectrum of interest. One or more super-regenerative oscillators are provided, each having a center frequency and each detecting signal features of recognizable input signals in the frequency band or spectrum of interest during multiple, successive time slots. The center frequency of each of the one or more super-regenerative oscillators is varied between time slots in a selected sequence, preferably according to a Segmentlet algorithm. The one or more super-regenerative oscillators extract the signal features of each the recognizable input signals in different time slots and/or in different super-regenerative oscillator and with a different time-slot associated center frequency associated with the one or more super-regenerative oscillators, thereby providing a time-frequency-amplitude map of the frequency band or spectrum of interest.
