From theoretical promise to observational reality : calibration, foreground subtraction, and signal extraction in hydrogen cosmology
… (either in image space or Fourier space) and inverse variance weighting. The latter method is described in a unified mathematical framework that includes power spectrum estimation. Foreground subtraction is also explored in the context of global signal experiments, and data analysis methods …
