Performance Analysis of Maximum Likelihood Estimation for Transmit Power Based on Signal Strength Model

We study theoretical performance of Maximum Likelihood (ML) estimation for transmit power of a primary node in a wireless network with cooperative receiver nodes. The condition that the consistence of an ML estimation via cooperative sensing can be guaranteed is firstly defined. Theoretical analysis...
