AN ACCURATE AND EFFICIENT ALGORITHM FOR DETECTION OF RADIO BURSTS WITH AN UNKNOWN DISPERSION MEASURE, FOR SINGLE-DISH TELESCOPES AND INTERFEROMETERS

ABSTRACT Astronomical radio signals are subjected to phase dispersion while traveling through the interstellar medium. To optimally detect a short-duration signal within a frequency band, we have to precisely compensate for the unknown pulse dispersion, which is a computationally demanding task. We...
