The asymptotic distribution of estimates that are based on a sub-optimal search for the maximum of the log-likelihood function is considered. In particular, estimation schemes that...
The emergence of third-generation (3G) mobile networks offers new opportunities for the effective delivery of data with rich content including multimedia messaging and video-strea...
