Distributed multisensor parameter estimation in dependent noise
Yawgeng A. Chau, E. Geraniotis · IEEE Transactions on Communications · 1992
The problem of distributed estimation of a weak nonrandom location parameter theta in additive stationary dependent noise is addressed. Multisensor configurations with and without a coordinator are considered. Dependence in the sensor observations is described by m-dependent, phi -mixing, and p-mixing models. Two cases of interest are addressed: one in which sensor observations are dependent across time but independent across sensors and one in which sensor observations are dependent across both time and sensors. Numerical results on the performance evaluation of the various estimation schemes derived are presented and the relative performances of the various schemes are compared.>
