Hey Tom, I just re-read the section around eq 39, and you are right. I looked at 39 and thought he setup the ratio, Eq37/Eq38, but that's not what he did. It's clear now and you're code is correct. Sorry about that. Rich On Thu, Oct 15, 2015 at 10:57 AM, Tom Rondeau wrote: > On Thu, Oct 15, 20

I figured out what was causing my numbers to be incorrect using M2M4. I was overlooking the fact that I was injecting noise at sample rate, but estimating noise power and a decimated rate. Once I took this into account, the estimate was in line with what I expect. I have not reconciled the differe

I've been comparing the m2m4 algorithm from the Norman Beaulieu paper "A Comparison of SNR Estimation Techniques" to what is implemented in the mpsk_snr_est.cc file. I see two implementations of the algorithm in that file, one of which looks perfectly in-line with the paper and the other does not.
