The computed band passes. ... The interim correlator input is filtered by 8 analog filters (50 Mhz wide at the 260 Mhz IF... one for each sub correlator). ... For bandwidths of 25 Mhz and below the real data stream is digitally down converted to complex samples I, Q streams. ... The Top figure is the halfband filter bandpass computed from the filter coefficients. ... The computed filter has aliased power, extra IQ filtering, and two applications of the filter on the resulting real bandpass. ...

... A well known problem with EOP prediction is that a prediction strategy proved to be the best for some testing period and prediction length may not remain as such for other period of time. In this paper we consider possible strategies to combine EOP predictions made using different analysis techniques to obtain a final prediction with the best accuracy corresponding to the least prediction error between input predictions. ... C2 ­ best previous prediction for given length. ...
