In signal analysis, the signals to be detected usually contain unknown parameters such as amplitude, time delay, phase, and frequency; these parameters must be estimated prior to the signal detection. The techniques used to estimate these signal parameters can be broadly classified into two main categories known as parametric and non-parametric methods. This paper presents a review of these signal parameter estimation techniques.
