Here is a YouTube video about Warren C Pratt NR0V on Advanced Algorithms for Noise Blanking and Noise Reduction, and is part of a growing collection of videos I have found to be useful. The reason is show how the Spectral Noise Blanker and Spectral Noise Reduction DSP algorithm are better than the more simple least mean squares DSP algoes and understanding science related to software defined radio.
This tutorial, "Warren C Pratt NR0V on Advanced Algorithms for Noise Blanking and Noise Reduction" is free education you can watch, which will help you deepen your knowledge and be better prepared for licence exams, schoolwork, or operating radio equipment.
