            Abstract : 
High frequency sampling scopes suffer from both additive noise and time jitter. The classical techniques for identifying the additive noise and time jitter noise are based on linear least squares estimators. This work derives the maximum likelihood estimator and compares it performance with the least squares estimator. Simulation results show the gain in efficiency of the proposed method under practical conditions of the sampling scopes
