Measuring the Velocity of a Signal

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  05 September 2017

Abstract

The problem considered is that of measuring the velocity of a signal, constituted by a plane wave, from measurements at a number of recorders receiving noise as well as signal. The asymptotic properties of the estimates are considered under rather general conditions on the noise and signal processes.
