β¦ Synopsis
Derived upper and lower bounds on the unconditional estimation error variance may be used as a performance measure for linear uncertain estimation problems such as those found in geophysicai systems.
Summary--For the class of linear Gauss-Markov systems with binary parameters uncertainty, the minimum variance estimate of the state and associated covariance of error expressions were derived in a closed form in [1,2]. In this paper expressions for the conditional and unconditional covariances of error matrices are presented for the M-ary case. Useful upper and lower bounds for the unconditional covariance of error are also presented which are valid, on the average, for any measurement sequence. A geophysical seismic data filtering example applying these results is also given.
