Approximation of the Hilbert Transform in Hölder Spaces.

The Hilbert transform plays an important role in the theory and practice of signal processing operations in continuous system theory because of its relevance to such problems as envelope detection and demodulation, as well as its use in relating the real and imaginary components, and the magnitude and phase components of spectra. The Hilbert transform is a multiplier operator and is widely used in the theory of Fourier transforms. It is also the main part of the theory of singular integral equations on the real line. Therefore, approximations of Hilbert transform are of great interest. Many papers have dealt with the numerical approximation of singular integrals in case of bounded intervals. On the other hand, the literature concerning the numerical integration on unbounded intervals is much sparser than the one on bounded intervals. There is very little literature concerning the case of Hilbert transform. This article is dedicated to the approximation of Hilbert transform in Hölder spaces by the operators introduced by V.R.Kress and E.Mortensen to approximate the Hilbert transform of analytic functions in a strip.
