Abstract :
In this paper, the problem of estimating higher-order statistics of generalized almost-cyclostationary (GACS) processes is addressed. The class of the GACS processes extends that of the almost-cyclostationary (ACS) processes and models the output of Doppler channels excited by ACS processes. The proposed estimator is shown to be mean-square consistent under mild assumptions.
