By maximum entropy I presume you mean Autoregressive (AR) type methods,
of which maximum entropy is but one.
It may be a bit wastefull to do it in IDL. I used fortran routines
in L. Marple's Digital Spectral Analysis with Applications (Prentice
Hill, and then wrote IDL routines to call the programs with CALL_EXTERNAL.
The single channel AR methods work all ok, but I could not get the
multiple channel to go.
I cannot send you the fortran stuff (it is copyrighted) but you are
welcome to my IDL calling routines -- not that they are any great feat
of programming.
