  • Abstract
    Manasse, Price, and Lerner have recently demonstrated1 the remarkable fact that it is possible to reduce the signal-detectability degradation factor of a band-pass limiter to unity by adding strong noise of low spectral intensity and sufficient bandwidth to its input. The purpose of this letter is to elucidate the phenomenon.
