Zusammenfassung:A method and apparatus for generating a signal to noise ratio (SNR) estimate. A conditional probability distribution function (CPDF) is rectified to suppress the condition, thereby creating a biased CPDF. Conditional offset moments are computed through an analysis of the asymmetry generated by the rectification. The conditional offset moments are then utilized to reduce the bias generated by the rectification to enhance the SNR estimate.
