  • Abstract
    This correspondence is concerned with the closedform computation of tight upper and lower bounds to the primary zone spectrum existing at the output of a symmetrical hard limiter driven by stationary zero-mean Gaussian noise whose spectral shape is that of a narrow-band first-order Butterworth bandpass filter.
