متن کاملConditional maximum likelihood timing recovery: estimators and bounds
This paper is concerned with the derivation of new estimators and performance bounds for the problem of timing estimation of (linearly) digitally modulated signals. The conditional maximum likelihood (CML) method is adopted, in contrast to the classical low-SNR unconditional ML (UML) formulation that is systematically applied in the literature for the derivation of non-data-aided (NDA) timing-e...
متن کاملUnconditional small-sample confidence intervals for the odds ratio.
The traditional approach to 'exact' small-sample interval estimation of the odds ratio for binomial, Poisson, or multinomial samples uses the conditional distribution to eliminate nuisance parameters. This approach can be very conservative. For two independent binomial samples, we study an unconditional approach with overall confidence level guaranteed to equal at least the nominal level. With ...
متن کاملTechnical Report Series COMPARISON OF FOUR SMALL SAMPLE BIAS CORRECTIONS OF THE EMPIRICAL COVARIANCE ESTIMATORS
The empirical (sandwich or robust) covariance matrix, usually used in conjunction with Generalized Estimating Equations (GEE) and Generalized Linear Mixed Models (GLMM), is biased towards zero for small sample sizes. As a consequence of this bias Type I error rates are usually higher than the nominal levels. Several small sample bias corrections have been proposed in the literature. The purpose...
