| contents | The matrix pencil method (MPM) is a well-known technique for estimating the parameters of exponentially damped sinusoids in noise by solving a generalized eigenvalue problem. However, in several cases, this is an ill-conditioned problem whose solution is highly biased under small perturbations. When the estimation is performed to classify the observed signal into two categories, the estimation errors induce several misclassifications. In this work we propose a novel signal classification criteria by exploiting the relationship between the generalized eigenvalue problem posed in the MPM and the numerical range of a pair of rectangular matrices. In particular, the classification test is formulated as a set inclusion problem, and no spectrum estimation is required. The technique is applied to a problem of electromagnetic scattering to classify dielectric materials using the scattering signal observed when a target is illuminated by an ultra-wideband signal. The performance of the classification scheme is assessed in terms of error rate and it is compared to another classification technique, the generalized likelihood rate test (GLRT). |
