Signal analysis of gravitational waves
Abstract
Description
In this lecture we describe the data analysis problem for insparlling binaries. We discuss the detection statistic, how to make realiable estimation and how to compute bias in the estimation of parameters. A combination of geometrical ideas and numerical methods are employed to estimate computational costs involved in searching for post-Newtonian wave forms.
