Let the weak signal X be a random variable with mean and variance P, and the observations be Y1 = X + Z1 (Z1 being the strong interference), and Y2 = Z1 + Z2 (Z2 is a measurement noise), where Z1 and Z2 are zero mean with variances N1 and N2, respectively. Assume that X, Z1 and Z2 are uncorrelated. Find the MMSE linear estimate of X given Y1 and Y2 and its MSE. Interpret the results.

The linear estimate of MMSE and MSE are given as

and respectively.

Explanation:

This is a vector MSE linear estimation problem. Since Z1 and Z2 are zero mean, µY1 = µX +µZ1 =µ and µY2 = µZ1 + µZ2 = 0 . We first normalize the random variables by subtracting their means to get

X' = X − µ and

To find the best linear MSE estimate X of X', we first find

and

Therefore

The best linear MSE estimate is Xˆ = Xˆ' + µ. Thus

The MSE can be calculated by

By substituting the values in the above equation as

Note that if either N1 or N2 go to 0, the MSE also goes to 0. This is because the estimator will then use the measurement with zero noise variance (that is, the one with no noise) to perfectly reconstruct X.

answer: i'm not sure which is which for i get confused on it all the time but i can tell you that the answer lies with the convex and concave devices. i hope this you. have a good day and best of luck to you!
