Abstract :
The authors derive exact analytical expressions for the PDF of instantaneous frequency estimate and the mean squared error (MSE) of a first order phase difference estimator in Gaussian white noise. The MSE is also derived in terms of linearised circular mean squared error, and is then compared to the Cramer-Rao bounds
