Bispectra

Abstract

This report provides an introduction to bispectral analysis. Four inter-related sections are provided: a primer introducing auto- and cross- bispectrum; a discussion of the detectability of a signal though its spectrum and bispectrum; a description of some experiments in which numerically generated signals were subjected to power-spectral and bispectral analyses; an application to a class of signals one might expect to be produced by submarines. Originator-supplied keywords included: bispectrum; ASW, inter-frequency phase; acoustics; spectral analysis.
