A Maximum Likelihood Estimator for ADC and DAC Linearity Testing
Abstrac t-The paper illustrates a method for simultaneous ADC and DAC linearity testing in a loopback scheme. The main features of the method are: (i) it is statistically nearly optimal, being based on a maximum likelihood estimator; (ii) it does not require prior knowledge neither of the ADC nonlinearity, nor of the DAC nonlinearity – both are simultaneously measured relying only on a constant...
متن کاملLecture 22: Maximum Likelihood Estimator
In the first part of this lecture, we will deal with the consistency and asymptotic distribution of maximum likelihood estimator. The second part of the lecture focuses on signal estimation/tracking. An estimator is said to be consistent if it converges to the quantity being estimated. This section speaks about the consistency of MLE and conditions under which MLE is consistent.
متن کاملMaximum likelihood characterization of distributions
Gauss’ principle states that the maximum likelihood estimator of the parameter in a location family is the sample mean for all samples of all sample sizes if and only if the family is Gaussian. There exist many extensions of this result in diverse directions. In this paper we propose a unified treatment of this literature. In doing so we define the fundamental concept of minimal necessary sampl...
متن کاملConsistency of the Maximum Likelihood Estimator of Evolutionary Tree
Maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) methods are widely used for evolutionary tree. As evolutionary tree is not a smooth parameter, the consistency of its MLE has been a topic of debate. It has been noted without proof that the classical proof of consistency by Wald holds for the MLE of evolutionary tree. Other proofs of consistency under various models were also proposed. Here we will discuss s...
