On the Equivalence of Maximum SNR and MMSE Estimation: Applications to Additive Non-Gaussian Channels and Quantized Observations Open
The minimum mean-squared error (MMSE) is one of the most popular criteria for\nBayesian estimation. Conversely, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is a typical\nperformance criterion in communications, radar, and generally detection theory.\n…
