Digital signal processing system for removing DC bias in the output of pyroelectric and similar detectors

摘要

A digital signal processing system (100) removes DC bias in the output of a pyroelectric detector and similar types of detectors by adding together a first output signal which is inverted and a second output signal which is not inverted. The system (100) also removes offsets in the detector signal introduced by electronic circuits (readouts, amplifiers, drivers, etc.) between the detector and the system (100).
