Abstract

A method for estimating one or more parameters of a propagation channel, with a priori knowledge of at least one signal, in a system having one or more sensors. The method includes correlating one or more signals received by the sensors with the known signal, sampling the received signals at a sampling period and selecting a number of samples per concatenation, and determining at least one parameter of the propagation channel which enables the most efficient reconstruction of the signals via a maximum likelihood method.
