  • Abstract
    The length of maximum entropy spectral analysis (MESA) filter M must be such that it contains all, and only, the physical information. A new original, conceptually simple criterion is suggested for estimating M on the basis of intrinsic memory time of the signal that is obtained from the autocovariances ÿt by means of the following quantity: begin{equation*}frac{Sigma_t |phi_t|}{phi_0}.end{equation*} This approach appears particularly suitable when it is applied to geophysical data set.
