PARAMETER ESTIMATION FOR WAVEFORMS IN ADDITIVE GAUSSIAN NOISE

Abstract

A method is developed for computing the greatest lower bound for the variance of unbiased estimates of waveform parameters, when the waveform is observed in additive Gaussian noise. The greatest lower bound is approximately evaluated in several illustrative cases. The waveform parameters occurring in these examples are amplitude, time delay, and doppler shift.
