ABSTRACT:
A signal separating system1comprises a frequency conversion element3, a dynamic filter component4with associated coherent stop slot and non-coherent passband, optionally a signal wave enhancer7with bypass, and a frequency reconversion element8. In operation of the system, mixed incoming signals12(CW or pulse signals) having known interference and unknown emission components can be effectively separated, permitting a virtually instantaneous separation of the known interference from the unknown emissions and permitting an unobscured monitoring and/or characterization of the extracted unknown emissions21, if desired. The arrangement bears definite advantage over known arrangements and retains utility for various frequency/agile or multiple or non-agile unknown signal applications.
