Matched filtering of gravitational waves from inspiraling compact binaries: Computational cost and template placement
Matched filtering of gravitational waves from inspiraling compact binaries: Computational cost and template placement
We estimate the number of templates, computational power, and storage required for a one-step matched filtering search for gravitational waves from inspiraling compact binaries. Our estimates for the one-step search strategy should serve as benchmarks for the evaluation of more sophisticated strategies such as hierarchical searches. We use a discrete …
