Hi,

Yes, there is convergence issues the way that classical "three corner 
hat" works. This is because how noise into the squaring behaves, where 
cross-correlation and Grosslambert processing is better. See the works 
of Prof François Vernotte. Also, if there is a tiny systematic like hum 
going into squaring, it makes things more unsolveable and does not 
converge nicely.

Cheers,
Magnus
