Abstract The operation of a wide field-of-view (WFOV) Cherenkov telescope is described. Detection of extensive air showers (EAS) of cosmic rays (CR) is based on the coincidence with signals from the Yakutsk array. The data acquisition system (DAQ) of the telescope yields signals connected with EAS development parameters: shower age and position of shower maximum in the atmosphere. Here we describe the application of digital signal processing for reconstruction of Cherenkov radiation signals induced by air showers.
