Signal Detection and Estimation - MATLAB Simulation Project

As a new first-year graduate student, I'm still figuring out what content to share. This document contains MATLAB simulations from our Signal Detection and Estimation course, which I hope will be helpful to others.

I'd like to share a recent project from my graduate studies involving signal detection and estimation, where we conducted simulation experiments using MATLAB. This documentation aims to assist students currently studying this subject. The project implements various detection algorithms including matched filter detection, energy detection, and statistical hypothesis testing methods. Key MATLAB functions used include filter design, statistical analysis tools, and signal processing modules for implementing detection thresholds and estimation algorithms. I will provide detailed explanations of our experimental process and results, along with practical implementation tips and suggestions. The simulations demonstrate how to calculate detection probabilities, false alarm rates, and parameter estimation accuracy using maximum likelihood and Bayesian approaches. I hope this material provides inspiration and enhances understanding of signal detection and estimation concepts through hands-on MATLAB implementation examples.
