Misspecified Cramér-rao bounds for complex unconstrained and constrained parameters

Abstract

In this paper, a generalization of the Misspecified Cramér-Rao Bound (MCRB) and of the Constrained MCRB (CMCRB) to complex parameter vectors is presented. Our derivation aims at providing lower bounds on the Mean Square Error (MSE) for both circular and non-circular, MS-unbiased, mismatched estimators. A simple toy example is also presented to clarify the theoretical findings.
