Methods of spectral estimation in local nuclear quadrupole resonance with a dispersion

Abstract

The spectral estimation in local nuclear quadrupole resonance at a high noise level is performed for the first time using the modern techniques of linear prediction (LPSVD) and matrix pencil (ITMPM). The fast Fourier transform with signal accumulation does not ensure the required sensitivity in the case of weak signals when the object and the receiver of the spectrometer are spaced widely apart or when there is an effect of adverse factors (screening, interference, random disturbance, etc.), which is typical of remote monitoring in actual practice. It is demonstrated that the use of the proposed techniques considerably increases the efficiency of spectral estimation in this field of solid-state spectroscopy and, in particular, avoids the phase errors arising in usual experiments at a signal-to-noise ratio of less than 0.5.
