Locally Optimum Detection of Composite Signals

Abstract

Ever since the threshold detection theory has first been studied early in the last century, numerous authors have extended the theory in various directions. Therefore, we can certainly find many interesting studies on various detection schemes for either random or known signals from some early studies to more recent ones. For instance, locally optimum detection of known and random signals, locally optimum detection with a space diversity concept, and locally optimum detection in a generalized observation model are some of the typical examples.
