Estimation of a signal waveform from noisy data using low-rank approximation to a data matrix

An analysis and improvement of a data-adaptive signal estimation algorithm are presented. Perturbation analysis of a reduced-rank data matrix is used to reveal its statistical properties. The obtained information is used for calculating the performance of the Toeplitz-restoration algorithm of D. Tufts et al. (1982). This analysis leads to improvements of the methods, and the predicted improvements are demonstrated by simulation and comparison with the Cramer-Rao bounds.<
