Abstract
This paper analyses the problems of measuring the parameters of a repetitive periodic signal with the monobit (binary 1/0 or signed binary ±1) quantization, which is called “rough statistics” here. The consideration is carried out in relation to radio equipment with phased antenna arrays using spatiotemporal sampling. The system constructed is based on the Monte Carlo method. Randomization of noninformative parameters of the processed signals is used for linearization of the quantization nonlinearity. This paper brings into balance the conventional approach based on an extensive increase in resources (that is, an increase in the resolution and rate of the analogto-digital converter) and the alternative approach involving an increase in the sample size.
