applies in this implementation
This course covers the following topics:
- Basic Concepts of Parameter Estimation
- Estimation of Deterministic Parameters
- Optimal Estimation techniques: Maximum Likelihood, MVUE, performance bounds
- Statistically Robust Estimators: dealing with noise and model uncertainty
- Practical but not necessarily optimal methods: Least Square, Method of Moments

- Beamforming and and Direction of arrival estimation
- High Resolution and Optimal Methods
- Dealing with coherent signals
Assessment Methods and Criteria
valid for whole curriculum period:
Lectures, exercises and an exam. Taking the exam may require passed exercises.
applies in this implementation
Two take-home assignment sets containing both analytical problem solving and matlab-assignments that have to be solved independently.
Final exam
Grading is based on the take-home assignments (50%) and final exam (50%).
Workload
valid for whole curriculum period:
5 cr = 133 h
Lectures, Exercises, Exam approximately 30 h, Independent studying (homeworks, preparing for exam, etc.) approximately 103 h
Attendance in some contact teaching may be compulsory.
