Maximum-Likelihood Estimation of Time-Varying Delay.

Abstract

This report presents, for the first time, the exact theoretical solution to the problem of maximum-likelihood (ML) estimation of time-varying delay, d(t), between a random signal, s(t), received at one point in the presence of uncorrelated noise and the time-delayed, scaled version as(t - d(t)) of that signal received at another point nonstationary Gaussian random process and the observation interval is arbitrary.
