Weiss-Weinstein Bound of Frequency Estimation Error for Very Weak GNSS Signals
Proceedings of the Satellite Division's International Technical Meeting (Online)/Proceedings of the Satellite Division's International Technical Meeting (CD-ROM)(2023)
Abstract
Tightness remains the primary goal in all modern estimation bounds. For very weak signals, tightness is enabled by appropriately selecting the prior probability distribution and bound family. While current bounds in global navigation satellite systems (GNSSs) assess the performance of carrier frequency estimators under Gaussian or uniform assumptions, the circular nature of frequency is overlooked. Of all bounds in the Bayesian framework, the Weiss-Weinstein bound (WWB) stands out because it is free from regularity conditions or restrictions on the prior distribution. Therefore, the WWB is extended for the current frequency estimation problem. A divide-and-conquer type of hyperparameter tuning method is developed to mitigate issues of computational complexity for the WWB family while enhancing tightness. Synthetic results show that for a von Mises prior probability distribution, the WWB provides a bound up to 22.5% tighter than the Ziv-Zaka & iuml; bound when the signal-to-noise ratio varies between -3.5 dB and -20 dB, where the GNSS signal is deemed extremely weak.
