Abstract :
This paper considers the effect of full-wave logarithmic transformation of signals with known probability density functions (p.d.f.s). A general result for the output variance is derived and specific results given for the mean and variance values of several common p.d.f.s. The output autocorrelation function for the Gaussian case is also derived.
