Abstract
We study parameter estimation accuracy of nearly monochromatic sources of gravitational waves with the future eLISA-like detectors. eLISA will be capable of observing millions of such signals generated by orbiting pairs of compact binaries consisting of white dwarf, neutron star or black hole and to resolve and estimate parameters of several thousands of them providing crucial information regarding their orbital dynamics, formation rates and evolutionary paths. Using the Fisher matrix analysis we compare accuracies of the estimated parameters for different mission designs defined by the GOAT advisory team established to asses the scientific capabilities and the technological issues of the eLISA-like missions.
