Abstract:
1. A method for replacing missing samples in a signal comprising a plurality of discrete samples, comprising: receiving a plurality of the discrete samples, each discrete sample having a respective sample location in a set of sample locations; identifying a subset of sample locations representing missing samples in the signal; determining a first threshold and a second threshold, wherein the first and second thresholds are each an integer number of samples, and the second threshold is greater than the first threshold; forming a first set of consecutive sample locations from the identified subset of sample locations; and replacing the missing samples in the first set of consecutive sample locations using a replacement process selected based at least in part on a comparison between a number of locations in the first set of consecutive locations, the first threshold, and the second threshold, and wherein the selected replacement process comprises signal modeling if the number of locations is between the first and second thresholds.
