On phase-lag estimation from non-Gaussian time series

An important problem in the physical sciences is estimation of the innovations of a noninvertible linear process. Here the problem of deconvolving such a time series containing a phase-lead is investigated. A compensating phase-lag filter is sought, and is estimated by maximization of a chosen statistic or projection index. It is demonstrated by simulation that a statistic which is superior to another in the ideal case of a full-band time series can be substantially inferior in the band-limited case.
