Nonlinear signal processor design: A building block approach

A new approach for the design of nonlinear systems (signal processors) based on an entirely new and interesting paradigm is presented in this paper. It is similar in spirits to the Neural nets paradigm (learn from existing systems) or the object oriented approach that has now become standard in software engineering and, in fact, takes it one step further as explained in the paper. This approach, though very simple, makes complex nonlinear systems design much easier. A number of practical applications are possible and we discuss few such applications. Detailed results will be provided at the conference.
