  • Abstract
    A novel system is discussed for measuring the auto-correlation R(\\tau ) of a random process. The system consists of a scaling device and a filter whose output equals R(bt) . Thus, R(\\tau ) is determined not by a succession of discrete values but as a continuous signal in real time. It is also shown that the instrument can be used to determine the impulse response y(t) of a dynamic system N . The unknown response y(t) is exhibited as a continuous signal.
