Harry L. Van Trees

Open publisher page 13 citations

Abstract

This chapter's discussion considers parameters that are constant during the observation period. The discussion of the parameter estimation problem is divided into two chapters. Chapter 8 focuses on maximum likelihood (ML) and maximum a posteriori probability (MAP) estimators and on bounds on the performance of any estimator.
