Signal Time of Arrival based on the Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test
نویسنده
چکیده
The algorithm takes as input a vector of data values which contains an initial segment of noise followed by the arrival of a signal. The algorithm returns an estimate of the time of arrival of the signal along with a binary random variable conf indicating the credibility of the estimate: conf = 1 indicating a level of confidence, conf = 0 indicating no confidence in the estimate. For the purpose of describing the algorithm we use the notation

Cooperative Spectrum Sensing: Two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test under Rician Fading Channel
Signal detection performance in cognitive radio architecture is enhanced by the cooperation of sensing detectors if the fading and shadowing effects exist on the channel. A cooperative spectrum sensing technique in cognitive radio networks based on two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test is proposed in this paper and proposed sensing scheme is examined under Rician fading channel. The performance of...
متن کاملKolmogorov - Smirnov method for the determination of signal time - shifts
A new method for the determination of electric signal time-shifts is introduced. As the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, it is based on the comparison of the cumulative distribution functions of the reference signal with the test signal. This method is very fast and thus well suited for on-line applications. It is robust to noise and its performances in terms of precision are excellent for shift times ...
متن کاملInter - arrival Time Distribution for Channel Arrivals in Cellular Telephony
In this paper different probability density functions are fitted to the inter-arrival time in a channel of a Cellular Mobile Telephony system. The approach is entirely experimental: the data set to be fitted has been obtained on an actual system in operation. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov (K-S) goodness-of-fit test is used in order to establish a ranking of the best fitting probability density functio...

This article presents a derivation of the distribution of the Kolmogorov–Smirnov, Cramer–von Mises, and Anderson–Darling test statistics in the case of exponential sampling when the parameters are unknown and estimated from sample data for small sample sizes via maximum likelihood.
متن کاملA The Power of Alternative Kolmogorov-Smirnov Tests Based on Transformations of the Data
The Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) statistical test is commonly used to determine if data can be regarded as a sample from a sequence of i.i.d. random variables with specified continuous cdf F , but with small samples it can have insufficient power, i.e., its probability of rejecting natural alternatives can be too low. However, Durbin [1961] showed that the power of the KS test often can be increased...
