Detection and Estimation in Digital Wireless Communications
Abstract
This thesis investigates reliable data communication techniques for wireless channels. The problem of data detection at the receiver is considered and several novel detectors and parameter estimators are presented.¶ It is shown that by using a noise-limiting prefilter, with a spectral support at least equal to the signal part of the received signal, and sampling its output at the Nyquist rate, a set of sufficient statistics for maximum likelihood sequence detection (MLSD) is obtained. ...
