Analysis of the interpolation techniques for time-of-flight estimation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The interpolation techniques for the time-of-flight estimation have been under study. The ToF estimation was done using the direct correlation technique of the sampled signal. More accurate estimation was done using interpolation between the samples. Three interpolation techniques for discrete direct correlation are discussed: linear interpolation of zero crossing, imaginary part of direct correlation zero crossing and peak estimation using parabolic interpolation. The theoretical equations for interpolation-influenced random errors estimation have been suggested and compared with the numerical simulation. Numerical simulation allowed to analyse the influence of additional signal re-sampling on interpolation errors.

Motion estimation and compensation is an essential part of existing video coding systems. The mesh-based motion estimation (MME) produces smoother motion field, better subjective quality (free from blocking artifacts), and higher peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) in many cases, especially at low bitrate video communications, compared to the conventional block matching algorithm (BMA). Howev...

In the present study, we used 27 precipitation average monthly data from synoptic, climatologic, rain-guage and evaporative stations located in Zayandeh-Rud river basin for the period of 1970-2014. Before interpolating, the missing data in the time series of each station was reconstructed by the normal ratio method. Also, for the data quality control, the Dickey-Fuller and Shapiro-Wilk tests we...
