Time Delay Estimation: For Known & Unknown Signals

Abstract

Time delay estimation using Hassab-Boucher windows is extensively examined by computer simulation for both known and unknown (random) signals. Optimum number of data segments is determined for the best result in time delay estimate. For the unknown signal case, the Burg's maximum entropy spectral estimation algorithm is used to estimate the signal spectral density used in the design of Hassab-Boucher windows. (Author)
