Abstract

A method for processing a signal includes reading in a signal and filtering the signal using a first number of band-pass filters in order to obtain one band-pass filtered signal per band-pass filter. The first number of band-pass filters is configured to each allow distinct frequency ranges of the signal to pass. The method further includes calculating at least one signal parameter each from the plurality of band-pass filtered signals. The method further includes performing analog-to-digital conversion of the plurality of band-pass filtered signals or signals derived therefrom using a plurality of signal parameters such that a second number of analog-to-digital converters used to perform the analog-to-digital conversion is less than the first number of band-pass filters used to filter the signal.
