| The main purpose of the signal processing is to look at the frequency response of the received signal. There are a variety of different methods that could be used to accomplish this. One approach would be to take a Fourier transform of the received signal using an algorithm like the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooley%E2%80%93Tukey_FFT_algorithm|fast Fourier transform (FFT)]]. However, as you can see by looking at the description of the algorithm it is fairly complicated. Rather than compute the Fourier transform of our received signal we are simply going to pass the signal through 10 different bandpass filters. Each bandpass filter will have a pass band centered on one of the player frequencies. | The main purpose of the signal processing is to look at the frequency response of the received signal.
