General second-order covariance of Gaussian maximum likelihood estimates applied to passive source localization in fluctuating waveguides

A method is provided for determining necessary conditions on sample size or signal to noise ratio (SNR) to obtain accurate parameter estimates from remote sensing measurements in fluctuating environments. These conditions are derived by expanding the bias and covariance of maximum likelihood estimat...
