Come now Gentlemen. Are you saying that your technical skills are sufficient to
understand the articles, but you are still somehow unable to explain the process
in a few short and simple sentences fit for the casual user?
It does not take eight or ten pages of technical data to explain the simple
process of data comparison. If you actually do understand it, share. If you
don't want to share, please do go home. Most kindergarten teachers will have
explained that to you already.
As I understood, or misunderstood, the article, the crux of the matter is that
the two data streams repeat 90 degrees out of phase and that simple comparison
of the two can show when "90 degrees" worth of data has been obtained. Then
comparing the larger data to a formulaic prediction can produce the correction
needed.
Since those publications and articles are not aimed at a lay audience, they may
be forgiven for being unclear to one.
