Abstract
The major objectives of this thesis are to detect the presence of auditory brainstem response(ABR) with lower numbers of averages than at present by using a matched filter method and, by the above method, to detect the wave V latency which is useful in testing for hearing loss.
It was found that the latency of the wave V peak can be correlated with the maximum output point of the matched filter using less computer averaging than the traditional method.
Using this technique, the time required for a hearing loss test can be reduced from one hour to approximately 20 min. without degradation in results.
