Zusammenfassung:A method and apparatus which combines multiple simultaneous signals thought to contain a common periodic component by performing principal component analysis on each of the multiple signals, finding the weight of the first principal component, and then adding the multiple signals together in a weighted sum according to the weight of the first principal component. The method and apparatus further includes a way of combining signals from successive overlapping time windows in real time by differentiating the signal and forming as each output signal sample the value of the preceding signal sample summed with the differential of the signal, weighted by weights based on the amplitude of the differential signal at that time point.
