Article history: Received 11 September 2013 Accepted 21 January 2014 Keywords: Polynomial phase signals Parameter estimation Compressive sensing
a b s t r a c t Several papers in the literature cover parameter estimation of frequency modulated (FM) signals under reduced number of signal samples with respect to the Nyquist/Shannon criterion, i.e., within the compressive sensing (CS) framework. However, scope of these papers is mainly limited to sinusoids or sum of sinusoids. In this paper, the CS framework is extended to parameter estimation of higher order polynomial phase signals (PPSs) using the quasi-maximum likelihood (QML) estimator and robust short-time Fourier transform (STFT). The considered signal is assumed to be non-uniformly sampled PPS with smaller number of samples with respect to the Nyquist/Shannon criterion. However, the proposed technique can also be generalized to uniformly sampled signals with missing or unreliable samples. © 2014 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.
1. Introduction Processing of undersampled data or data with missing samples has attracted significant attention within the compressive sensing (CS) framework [1,2]. Namely, joint data acquisition and compression is possible if data records are sparse in the recording domain [3]. There exist several research papers dealing with the CS in the frequency domain related to parameter estimation of a sinusoidal signal [4–6]. In addition, reconstruction of samples of time-frequency (TF) representations based on compressed information is considered in [7]. Note that reconstructing a signal using data with missing samples is in fact equivalent to compressive sensing, which can be described as a technique for efficient determination of entire signal from relatively small number of measurements. In [8,9], the robust Huber statistics [10] has been applied to the high frequency data and FM signals corrupted by impulsive noise. However, missing observations within CS framework can also be considered as unreliable signal samples due to high amount of noise [6]. Recently, it has been shown that parametric estimation of non-uniformly sampled frequency modulated (FM) signals can be more accurate than that of uniformly sampled data [11]. Previous research in the CS is extended in several directions in this paper. Firstly, polynomial phase signals (PPSs) are considered. Secondly, in addition to the estimation of parameters of uniformly

sampled data with missing samples, we consider undersampled data with non-uniform sampling. Thirdly, a recently proposed quasi maximum likelihood (QML) approach [12], used as a tool for PPS estimation from CS observations, has been modified to estimate signals with non-polynomial modulation. The paper is organized as follows. The background informations: the PPS definition, the sampling model, the robust discrete Fourier transform (DFT) and the robust short-time Fourier transform (STFT) frameworks are presented in Section 2. The QML algorithm for handling CS data (QML-CS) is proposed in Section 3, while its statistical study is presented in Section 4. Concluding remarks are given in Section 5.

If we define ωmax and ωmin to be the maximal and the minimal IFs in an arbitrary time interval [T1 , T2 ] with T = T2 − T1 , then we can write
ik ∈ {Im{x(tn ) exp(−jωtn )}|n ∈ [1, N]},
with ik ≤ ik+1 , rk ≤ rk+1 and x(n) = x(nt) = x(tn ) (t is the sampling period). In the L-DFT implementation, the parameter bk is usually chosen such that k bk = 1 and bk = bN+1−k . A widely used value for bk , when N is even, is given by [17]

where B is the signal bandwidth in the interval T. To satisfy the sampling theorem, within the considered time interval T, the total number of signal samples N has to be equal or larger than BT, i.e., N ≥ BT. However, this number N is usually significantly larger than (M + 2), the number of signal parameters (A, a0 , . . ., aM ) to estimate. In this paper, our objective is to estimate these parameters using only K samples where K is an integer verifying M + 2 ≤ K ≤ N.
where the operator · denotes the rounding to the closest integer. The value of the chosen ˛ (˛ ∈ [0, 0.5]) controls the amount of outlier rejection. For instance, small values of ˛ yield a large amount of outlier rejection but at the same time introduce some spectral signal distortion. From extensive computational analysis we observed, using trial and error, that the best value for ˛ is 0.35. Of course, alternative methods such as adaptive ones can be used to determine the optimal value for ˛ [16]. Note that the standard DFT is obtained for bk = 1/N, k = 1, . . ., N. The L-DFT is an example of the robust Huber’s statistics concept used to represent, filter and estimate the parameters of FM signals corrupted with impulsive noise [9,10,18].

If the signal x(t) is uniformly sampled using N samples, the best achievable performance in the estimation of the phase parameters, a0 , . . ., aM , is given by the Cramer-Rao lover bound CRLBN (am ), m = 0, . . ., M [13,14]. However, if the signal x(t) is non-uniformly sampled using K ≤ N samples, whereby the samples are randomly drawn from x(t) using the uniform distribution p(ts ) =

with s = 1, 2, . . ., K
(5)
then, the best achievable performance in the estimation of the phase parameters is given by CRLBK (am ), m = 0, . . ., M [15] N CRLBK (am ) ≈ CRLBN (am ). K
(6)
In the sequel, for the sake of simplicity, we will assume that the non-uniform time instants ts , s = 1, . . ., K satisfy the relationship ts < ts+1 . 2.3. L-discrete Fourier transform (L-DFT) When the signal x(t) is uniformly sampled and some of its samples are missing the standard DFT becomes inadequate. As the missing samples can be treated as samples corrupted by impulsive noise [6], the best tool to use in this case is the robust DFT. Here, we will consider the L-DFT form of the robust DFT defined as [16] XL (ω) =

bk [rk + jik ].

k=1
In this robust DFT, the quantity rk (k = 1, . . ., N) is defined such that r1 corresponds to the first element of the value-ordered set {Re{x(tn ) exp(− jωtn )}|n ∈ [1, N]}, r2 corresponds to the second element of the value-ordered set {Re{x(tn ) exp(− jωtn )}|n ∈ [1, N]} and so on. The quantity ik is defined in a similar way using the valueordered set {Im{x(tn ) exp(− jωtn )}|n ∈ [1, N]}. Mathematically, we have rk ∈ {Re{x(tn ) exp(−jωtn )}|n ∈ [1, N]},
The L-DFT, applicable to stationary signals, has been generalized to non-stationary signals using the L-STFT defined as [8,19]

and s = h/2 +1, . . ., N − h/2. As we can see from the expressions, the L-STFT is implemented using windowing of the data to select a narrow time interval and subsequently applying it on the L-DFT. The window length (h + 1) used in the L-STFT is assumed to be odd, and are selected in the same way as those in the the coefficients bs,h k L-DFT. Other TF representations exist in the literature and can be applied instead of the STFT [8,20]. 3. QML-CS algorithm 3.1. QML algorithm Many algorithms have been developed for the estimation of the parameters of a PPS [21–25]. Here, we consider the QML estimator [12,26] which consists of the following five basic steps: Step 1. Evaluate the STFTs corresponding to different selected window lengths. Step 2. For each evaluated STFT, estimate the corresponding signal IF. Step 3. From each estimated IF, obtain the PPS parameters estimates {ˆa1 , . . ., aˆ M } using polynomial regression described in [12]. Observe that these estimates are biased due to the biased nature of the STFT IF estimates. Also, note that for

each window length we have a corresponding set of parameters {ˆa1 , . . ., aˆ M }. Step 4. Improve the parameter estimates {ˆa1 , . . ., aˆ M } to obtain f f f refined estimates {ˆa0 , aˆ 1 , . . ., aˆ M } using the technique developed in [27]. f f f Step 5. For each refined parameter set {ˆa0 , aˆ 1 , . . ., aˆ M }, evaluate the QML function defined as

Existing PPS parameter estimation algorithms, including the QML algorithm presented above, have been developed for uniformly sampled signals that satisfy the sampling theorem. In the sequel, we will modify the QML algorithm in order to estimate the PPS parameters when (i) the sampling rate is random and nonuniform and (ii) the number of considered samples is smaller than the number of samples used in uniform sampling case. 3.2. Modified QML algorithm Here we consider a signal x(t) that has been non-uniformly sampled using K samples. The samples are randomly drawn from x(t) using the uniform distribution given by (5). 3.2.1. Step 1: L-STFT evaluation In the modified QML instead of using STFT we use the L-STFT. In this case, in the evaluation of the L-STFT we only consider the available time instants ts , s ∈ [1, K] as the center of our fixed length window h. We note that the number of samples in the window around ts is not symmetrical (i.e., number of samples to the left of ts is not necessarily equal to the number of samples to the right of it) and this number can be different for each considered time instant ts . Thus, if we assume s,h to be the number of signal samples within the window interval h, then the L-STFT can be expressed as bs,h [rs,h + jis,h ] k k k

Since a large number of signal samples are missing, it is expected that some of the IF estimates may be relatively far from the true IF values. To mitigate this, we propose to employ the median filter to remove these large errors in the IF estimates, i.e., ω ˆ ˛,h (ts ) = median{ω ˆ ˛,h (tq ) | q ∈ [s − m, s + m]},
where m is the median filter length.

Xh = [tsm−1 | m ∈ [1, M] × s ∈ [1, K]]. For the notation, now we have added the subscripts ˛ and h to the parameters aˆ i to become aˆ ˛,i,h to indicate that the parameter estimates depend on the selected values of ˛ and h. Again, we note that the estimates are biased because the L-STFT-based IF estimates are biased. 3.2.4. Step 4: refinement procedure The refinement procedure is a very important step in the QML algorithm. In order to improve the accuracy of the phase estimates obtained in Step 3, a refinement algorithm described in [27] is used. However, this refinement technique had to be adapted for non-uniformly and subsampled data. Thus, here we explain the main steps of the refinement procedure that have been used in our proposed algorithm. First, the signal x(ts ) is dechirped using the parameters estimates {ˆa˛,1,h , . . ., aˆ ˛,M,h }

Due to errors in the estimation of the parameters, the difference between the true values and their estimates is non-zero, i.e., / 0, m = 0, . . ., M. The objective of the refineıa˛,m,h = aˆ ˛,m,h − am = ment is to find the values of ıa˛,m,h and to use them to correct the estimates aˆ ˛,m,h . This can be done by filtering, downsampling, phase unwrapping of x˜ (ts ) and subsequent polynomial fitting of the unwrapped phase, as presented below. The filtering of x˜ (ts ), necessary to improve the signal to noise ratio, is performed using a moving average filter expressed by
3.2.2. Step 2: IF estimation The IF estimation can be performed in the same manner as in the case of the QML algorithm and other related TF-based techniques, i.e., using position of the TF representation maxima ω ˆ ˛,h (ts ) = argmax|STFT˛,h (ts , ω)|.

and select the set that yields the maximum value of the evaluated function. This set is considered as the optimal set of PPS parameters.

3.2.3. Step 3: parameter estimation Here, the PPS parameter estimation from the IF estimates is performed in the same way as in the QML algorithm described earlier. Since the IF estimates are sparse and non-uniformly distributed (which is common issue in polynomial fitting), these parameters are estimated using
aˆ ˛,h = [ˆa˛,1,h , . . ., aˆ ˛,M,h ]

The downsampling of xˆ (tq ) is needed in order to stabilize the results of the estimation process. Namely, polynomial fitting could become an unstable process for a large number of samples. Then, we use the polynomial fitting with reduced number of samples x(tl ) = xˆ (tL(l+1/2) ) for l ∈ [0, K/L).
(22)
Remark. As an alternative, some more robust procedures can be applied [28]. Once the noise is suppressed, the phase of x(tl ) is unwrapped using v(tl ) = unwrap(angle(x(tl )) l ∈ [0, K/L) and polynomial fitting is performed to estimate ıa˛,m,h , m = 0, . . ., M using ı a˜ = ( ) T

Note that l is used for brevity as substitution for l = L(l + 1/2). Consequently, the improved phase parameter estimates are obtained as f

Remark. It should be mentioned that the moving average filter length L is commonly chosen in the range L ∈ [5, 15]. Larger values of L provide better filtering of data sequence; however, working with undersampled data means that we cannot use large L due to limited number of available samples. Therefore, in the case of the CS data, the accuracy improvement in the fine estimation process is limited with respect to the standard sampling case.
3.2.5. Step 5: Selection of the best estimates f Note that in the proposed technique, the phase estimates aˆ ˛,m,h depend on the values of ˛, h and M (if we assume that M is unknown). Thus, in the proposed algorithm implementation we selected a set of values for ˛, a set of values for h, a set of values for M, and we re-run the algorithm for all possible combinations of (˛, f h, M). Thus, the resulting number of parameter sets {ˆa˛,m,h;M |m ∈ [0, M]} is equal to the number of possible combinations of (˛, h, M). The best set of parameters selected among all the obtained ones is the maximizer of the function:
2 M f f m x(tn ) exp −jˆa˛,0,h;M − j aˆ ˛,m,h;M tn /m . n

(28)
At the first glance, it looks like the proposed technique requires a 3D search for parameter estimation. However, if we fix ˛, the search is performed over small number of elements of the set H and finally, if the order of the polynomial in the signal phase is known in advance, which is common in practice [13], the search over M is not needed. 4. Numerical examples 4.1. Example 1 The statistical study of the proposed method is performed for a sixth order PPS. This signal is of rather high order and conventional phase differentiation techniques, such as the high-order ambiguity function (HAF) and product HAF (PHAF), usually produce a mean squared error (MSE) that is 15–20 dB above the CRLB for a signal uniformly sampled according to the Shannon/Nyquist theorem. Suppose that the signal is uniformly sampled within the interval t ∈ [−1, 1). The signal amplitude is A = 1 while, in each trial, the phase parameters are randomly selected according to the uniform distribution within ranges: a6 ∈ [0, 2 ], a5 ∈ [0, 2 ], a4 ∈ [40 , 56 ], a3 ∈ [31.5 , 40.5 ], a2 ∈ [−56 , − 40 ], a1 ∈ [6 , 10 ] and a0 = 0. The trimming parameter ˛ is fixed equal to 0.35 and the order of polynomial phase M is known in advance. The set of windows has the following widths H = 1/16 : 1/16 : 1/2 (8 windows in total). Length of the median filter is set to 2m + 1 =5. We have performed 300 trials for various numbers of non-uniformly sampled data K for three experiments: noise-free signal, SNR = 5 dB and SNR = 10 dB. Here, we can expect errors in the estimation process even for the noise-free signal due to spectral distortion effects associated with the robust STFT [17,29]. Fig. 1 depicts the MSE in the estimation of the two highest-order phase parameters. Note that similar results are obtained for all the other phase parameters. Also, we have conducted experiments for M < 6 and obtained similar outcomes. As it can be seen, the proposed technique for K close to N practically reaches the CRLB but as the number of considered samples reduces, the MSE of the proposed technique departs from the CRLB. For example, for K = 110 samples, difference between the MSE and the CRLB is less than 15 dB. This is smaller than the difference between the MSE in the case of the HAF based estimator and CRLB (see [23,25]). Even for K = 70, the proposed technique has MSE 18 dB higher than the CRLB but still there are no outliers in the parameters estimation. For K < 70 (more than 72% samples are missing) the proposed estimator starts to produce outliers.
In this example we consider a test signal with non-polynomial modulation:

The IF of this signal is crucial since, in this case, we cannot use the parameters of the PPS model. The IF for the considered signal is ω(t) = 48 cos(2 t).

In this experiment, we have used the same ˛ value and the same set of window lengths as those in Example 1. However, for the polynomial order M, we have searched over the interval M ∈ [2, 12]. The

IF estimate is depicted in Fig. 2 for three characteristic SNR values and K. From Fig. 2 it can be seen that, for high SNR (SNR = 10 dB) and relatively small number of missing samples (K = 120), the obtained results are excellent, i.e., the estimated IF is very close to the exact IF. For lower SNR (SNR = 6 dB) and larger number of missing samples (K = 100), the results are worse with larger difference between the exact and estimated IF. However, we can say that reasonable accuracy has been archived since in all instants the obtained IF ω(t)
5. Conclusion The QML-based estimator of polynomial phase signals, sampled at a rate below the Nyquist/Shannon theorem limit, is proposed in this paper. The proposed technique is tested for two scenaria: a signal with known order of polynomial, and a signal that has no polynomial modulation. In both cases the proposed technique produces accurate results for a high percentage of missing samples.

estimate is close to the exact one. This cannot be claimed for K = 80 and SNR = 4 dB since significant difference between the exact and estimated IF exists. The estimated IF for this case can be treated as an outlier. In order to find (K, SNR) regions in which the modified QML algorithm produces estimates that are free of outliers, we have performed 300 trials of Monte Carlo simulations for various K and SNR values. We assume that an estimated IF is an outlier if the maximal absolute difference between the estimated and exact IF is larger than 20. The results of this statistical analysis are presented in Fig. 3. In this figure, the white regions correspond to (K, SNR) values where we have not obtained outliers in our trials, while the black color depicts the range where outliers are detected. It can be seen that for SNR = 10 dB, the proposed technique performs quite accurately for 50% of missing samples, while for SNR = 5 dB the proposed technique is able to operate accurately enough for 33% of missing samples.
