Noise statistics in a fast digital radio receiver: The Bedlam backend for the Parkes radio telescope

The digital record of the voltage in a radio telescope receiver, after frequency conversion and sampling at a finite rate, is not a perfect representation of the original analog signal. To detect and characterise a transient event with a duration comparable to the inverse bandwidth it is necessary t...
