Estimation of the number of orthogonal signals with unknown parameters

Аннотация

Algorithms for estimation of the number of signals with unknown amplitudes and several non-energy parameters are synthesized on the basis of the modified maximum likelihood method. Asymptotic values of the probabilities of the error in estimation of the signal number are determined. The effect of a reduced volume of the a priori domain of possible values and the dimensionality of the vector of unknown non-energy parameters on the quality of operation of the algorithms for estimation of the number of signals is investigated.
