Estimating Maxima of Generalized Cross Ambiguity Functions, and Uncertainty Principles

چکیده
In certain signal processing problems, it is customary to estimate parameters in distorted signals by approximating what is termed a cross ambiguity function and estimating where it attains its maximum modulus. To unify and generalize these procedures, we consider a generalized form of the cross ambiguity function and give error bounds for estimating the parameters, showing that these bounds are lower if we maximize the real part rather than the modulus. We also reveal a connection between these bounds and certain uncertainty principles, which leads to a new type of uncertainty principle.

Hermite Functions and Uncertainty Principles for the Fourier and the Windowed Fourier Transforms
We extend an uncertainty principle due to Beurling into a characterization of Hermite functions. More precisely, all functions f on R which may be written as P (x) exp(Ax, x), with A a real symmetric definite positive matrix, are characterized by integrability conditions on the product f(x)f̂(y). We also give the best constant in uncertainty principles of Gelf’and Shilov type. We then obtain sim...
متن کاملModeling of Epistemic Uncertainty in Reliability Analysis of Structures Using a Robust Genetic Algorithm
In this paper the fuzzy structural reliability index was determined through modeling epistemic uncertainty arising from ambiguity in statistical parameters of random variables. The First Order Reliability Method (FORM) has been used and a robust genetic algorithm in the alpha level optimization method has been proposed for the determination of the fuzzy reliability index. The sensitivity level ...
متن کاملUncertainty Principles for Radar Ambiguity Functions and Moments
In this article, we give an estimate of the zero-free region around the origin of the ambiguity function of a one-dimensional signal u in terms of the moments of u. This is done by proving an uncertainty relation between the first zero of the Fourier transform of a non-negative function and the moments of the function. As a corollary, we also give an estimate of how much a function needs to be ...
متن کاملComparing The Effectiveness of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Focused on Intolerance of Uncertainty and Pharmacotherapy on Worry, Intolerance of Uncertainty, and Cognitive Avoidance in Patients With Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Objectives Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is a highly prevalent distressing condition for individuals in both community and healthcare staff. In this regard, lack of effective psychological and medical treatments can impose a high cost on the family and society. Methods A total of 22 female patients with GAD after primary clinical evaluation and qualifying conditions were selected and divi...
متن کاملEstimating the Optimal Dosage of Sodium Valproate in Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsy with Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System
Introduction: Epilepsy is a clinical syndrome in which seizures have a tendency to recur. Sodium valproate is the most effective drug in the treatment of all types of generalized seizures. Finding the optimal dosage (the lowest effective dose) of sodium valproate is a real challenge to all neurologists. In this study, a new approach based on Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) was pre...
