Detailed Description
SNR Estimator using 2nd and 4th-order moments.
An SNR estimator for M-PSK signals that uses 2nd (M2) and 4th (M4) order moments. This estimator uses knowledge of the kurtosis of the signal (k_a) and noise (k_w) to make its estimation. We use Beaulieu's approximations here to M-PSK signals and AWGN channels such that k_a=1 and k_w=2. These approximations significantly reduce the complexity of the calculations (and computations) required.
