Addendum to ARL TR 8974, A Survey of Methods for Estimating Pulse Width and Pulse Repetition Interval
Abstract
In ARL-TR-8974, we presented several classes of algorithms designed to estimate pulse repetition intervals. At the time, however, we failed to mention some interesting statistical approaches based on minimization of the mean squared error. The problem formulation in these approaches leads to the incorporation of target tracking techniques based on the Kalman filter. Thus, these approaches attack the problem from a different perspective than those previously considered. This new perspective warrants coverage within the framework of the earlier discussion. The purpose of this addendum is to describe the origins of the new perspective based on linear system theory and state variable estimation.
