Digital pulse shaper with variable weighting function

1. A method of providing real time digital pulse shaping, comprising:

(a) receiving a digitized pulse signal from a radiation detector;

(b) applying said digitized pulse signal to first and second processing channels, said first processing channel including a digitally synthesizing CONCAVE shaper and said second processing channel including a digitally synthesizing CONVEX shaper;

(c) applying selected digital control parameters to said digitally synthesizing CONCAVE shaper and said digitally synthesizing CONVEX shaper to produce desired first and second weighting functions; and

(d) superposing said first and second weighting functions to produce a desired overall weighting function.
