Joint Transmit and Receive Filter Optimization for Sub-Nyquist Delay-Doppler Estimation
In this article, a framework is presented for the joint optimization of the
analog transmit and receive filter with respect to a parameter estimation
problem. At the receiver, conventional signal processing systems restrict the
two-sided bandwidth of the analog pre-filter to the rate of the
analog-to-digital converter to comply with the well-known Nyquist-Shannon
sampling theorem. In contrast, here we consider a transceiver that by design
violates the common paradigm . To this end, at the receiver, we
allow for a higher pre-filter bandwidth and study the achievable
parameter estimation accuracy under a fixed sampling rate when the transmit and
receive filter are jointly optimized with respect to the Bayesian
Cram\'{e}r-Rao lower bound. For the case of delay-Doppler estimation, we
propose to approximate the required Fisher information matrix and solve the
transceiver design problem by an alternating optimization algorithm. The
presented approach allows us to explore the Pareto-optimal region spanned by
transmit and receive filters which are favorable under a weighted mean squared
error criterion. We also discuss the computational complexity of the obtained
transceiver design by visualizing the resulting ambiguity function. Finally, we
verify the performance of the optimized designs by Monte-Carlo simulations of a
likelihood-based estimator.Comment: 15 pages, 16 figure
Engineering studies related to geodetic and oceanographic remote sensing using short pulse techniques
For the Skylab S-193 radar altimeter, data processing flow charts and identification of calibration requirements and problem areas for defined S-193 altimeter experiments are presented. An analysis and simulation of the relationship between one particular S-193 measurement and the parameter of interest for determining the sea surface scattering cross-section are considered. For the GEOS-C radar altimeter, results are presented for system analyses pertaining to signal-to-noise ratio, pulse compression threshold behavior, altimeter measurement variance characteristics, desirability of onboard averaging, tracker bandwidth considerations, and statistical character of the altimeter data in relation to harmonic analysis properties of the geodetic signal
