Statistics of the MLE and Approximate Upper and Lower Bounds - Part 1: Application to TOA Estimation [PDF]
In nonlinear deterministic parameter estimation, the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) is unable to attain the Cramer-Rao lower bound at low and medium signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) due the threshold and ambiguity phenomena.

Estimation of Sparse MIMO Channels with Common Support [PDF]
We consider the problem of estimating sparse communication channels in the MIMO context. In small to medium bandwidth communications, as in the current standards for OFDM and CDMA communication systems (with bandwidth up to 20 MHz), such channels are ...

Subspace Method-based Blind SNR Estimation for Communication between Orbiters in Mars Exploration
In Mars exploration the effective time of communication between orbiters is short, and the relative distance and gesture between them change fast. The signal to noise ratio (SNR) estimation is required in receiver to change adaptively the data rate in ...
