This paper deals with the problem of subsample time delay estimation of complex signal based on polynomial interpolation. Time delay estimation is performed by cross-correlation time approach. Three polynomial interpolation techniques applied to the discrete complex cross-correlation function in the neighborhood of its maximum are proposed. These methods show high processing speed and allow obtaining accurate real-valued time delay estimation when digital complex signals are processed. The comparative analysis between these methods is performed. A rigorous analytical solution for the correction of time delay estimation for one of the proposed methods is obtained for the case of the third-order polynomial interpolation. This solution is applied for an equidistant grid of discrete cross-correlation function samples. One can improve the accuracy of time delay estimates by using aforementioned correction. A numerical simulation is performed to quantify the accuracy of the time delay estimates when using the proposed methods for the case where a stationary random process described by the first-order autoregressive mode is chosen as a model of original signal. The main results were presented and discussed at XIV All-Russian conference “Radar and telecommunication”.
