Abstract
Signal processing apparatus includes: an input interface configured to receive an output signal Vfrom a sensor; a prediction circuit configured to generate, on the basis of a relationship different depending on each of a plurality of converged values V, a plurality of predicted values Vcorresponding to a value of the output signal that would be obtained at a time Tafter a time T, in a transition response period before a response time period Tr elapses where Tr denotes a response time period required for a value of the output signal Vto become a converged value Vcorresponding to a value P of a parameter representing a certain property of an object to be measured, in accordance with a value Vof the output signal obtained at the time T; and an estimation circuit configured to generate, on the basis of the value Vof the output signal obtained at the time Tand the plurality of predicted values V, an estimated value Pe of a parameter representing the certain property of the object to be measured.
