dc.descriptionA lower bound on the minimum mean-squared error (MSE) in a Bayesian estimation problem is proposed in this paper. This bound utilizes a well-known connection to the deterministic estimation setting. Using the prior distribution, the bias function which minimizes the Cramer-Rao bound can be determined, resulting in a lower bound on the Bayesian MSE. The bound is developed for the general case of a vector parameter with an arbitrary probability distribution, and is shown to be asymptotically tight in both the high and low signal-to-noise ratio regimes. A numerical study demonstrates several cases in which the proposed technique is both simpler to compute and tighter than alternative methods.
