Search Process and Probabilistic Bifix Approach
An analytical approach to a search process is a mathematical prerequisite for
digital synchronization acquisition analysis and optimization. A search is
performed for an arbitrary set of sequences within random but not equiprobable
L-ary data. This paper derives in detail an expression for probability
distribution function, from which other statistical parameters - expected value
and variance - can be obtained. The probabilistic nature of (cross-) bifix
indicators is shown and application examples are outlined, ranging beyond the
usual telecommunication field.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures, to appear in Proceedings of the 2005 IEEE
