Abstract :
The problem of improving the quality of measurand reconstruction using integration techniques for implementation of various measurement functions is addressed. An integrated specialized structure for Kalman-filter-based reconstruction of the measurand is proposed. It is designed to act as an external coprocessor for a host processor. Although intended to improve the resolution of spectrometric measurements, it may be used in other applications where similar processing of measurement signals is required. The performance of the integrated specialized structure is compared to that of the general-purpose digital signal processor DSP56001
