1976-01-01

The problem of estimating and tracking the signal parameters of a nonstationary stochastic Morse communication signal was investigated. The signal parameters are the characteristic element durations of the Morse message. A two dimensional estimation space is assumed containing six modes for the composite mark-space signal. Each mode is assumed to be an independent Gaussian ...
