| contents | Motivated by the proliferation of mobile devices, we consider a basic form of the ubiquitous problem of time-delay estimation (TDE), but with communication constraints between two non co-located sensors. In this setting, when joint processing of the received signals is not possible, a compression technique that is tailored to TDE is desirable. For our basic TDE formulation, we develop such a joint compression-estimation strategy based on the notion of what we term "extremum encoding", whereby we send the index of the maximum of a finite-length time-series from one sensor to another. Subsequent joint processing of the encoded message with locally observed data gives rise to our proposed time-delay "maximum-index"-based estimator. We derive an exponentially tight upper bound on its error probability, establishing its consistency with respect to the number of transmitted bits. We further validate our analysis via simulations, and comment on potential extensions and generalizations of the basic methodology. |
