INFAMPLITUDECLIP - Perform infinite amplitude clipping on singnal
Usage:
- xout = infamplitudeclip(xin);
- xout = infamplitudeclip(xin,'norm');
Description:
INFAMPLITUDECLIP(xin) performs infinite amplitude clipping on the
input signal. This is a signal modification that preserves the
zero-crossings of the signal, but sets the amplitude to either +1 or
-1 depending on the sign of the signal. This type of modification was
used in "Licklider and Pollack, 1948".
INFAMPLITUDECLIP(xin,'rms') will do the same, but scale the signal so as
to preserve the RMS value of the signal.
