In this paper we present a generic framework for the asymptotic performance analysis of subspace-based parameter estimation schemes. It is based on earlier results on an explicit first-order expansion of the estimation error in the signal subspace obtained via an SVD of the noisy observation matrix. We extend these results in a number of aspects. Firstly, we demonstrate that an explicit first-order expansion of the Higher-Order SVD (HOSVD)-based subspace estimate can be derived. Secondly, we show how to obtain explicit first-order expansions of the estimation error of arbitrary ESPRIT-type algorithms and provide the expressions for R-D Standard ESPRIT, R-D Unitary ESPRIT, R-D Standard Tensor-ESPRIT, as well as R-D Unitary Tensor-ESPRIT. Thirdly, we derive closed-form expressions for the mean square error (MSE) and show that they only depend on the second-order moments of the noise. Hence, to apply this framework we only need the noise to be zero mean and possess finite second order moments. Additional assumptions such as Gaussianity or circular symmetry are not needed.

In this correspondence, we propose an efficient estimator of optimal memory (averaging interval) for discrete-time finite impulse response (FIR) filters in state-space. Its crucial property is that only real measurements and the filter output are involved with no reference and noise statistics. Testing by the two-state polynomial model has shown a very good correspondence with predicted values. Even in the worst case of the harmonic model, the estimator demonstrates practical applicability.
