Distributed signal detection under the Neyman-Pearson criterion
نویسندگان
چکیده
A procedure for finding the Neyman–Pearson optimum distributed sensor detectors for cases with statistically dependent observations is described. This is the first valid procedure we have seen for this case. This procedure is based on a theorem proven in this paper. These results clarify and correct a number of possibly misleading discussions in the existing literature. Cases with networks of sensors in fairly general configurations are considered along with cases where the sensor detectors make multiple bit sensor decisions.

Optimum Local Decision Rules in a Distributed Detection System with Dependent Observations
The theory of distributed detection is receiving a lot of attention. A common assumption used in previous studies is the conditional independence of the observations. In this paper, the optimization of local decision rules for distributed detection networks with correlated observations is considered. We focus on presenting the detection theory for parallel distributed detection networks with fi...

متن کاملOn the Restricted Neyman-Pearson Approach for Composite Hypothesis-Testing in Presence of Prior Distribution Uncertainty
The restricted Neyman-Pearson (NP) approach is studied for composite hypothesis-testing problems in the presence of uncertainty in the prior probability distribution under the alternative hypothesis. A restricted NP decision rule aims to maximize the average detection probability under the constraints on the worst-case detection and false-alarm probabilities, and adjusts the constraint on the w...
متن کاملPerformance Comparison of the Neyman-pearson Fusion Rule with Counting Rules for Spectrum Sensing in Cognitive Radio
Distributed spectrum sensing (DSS) is of great importance in Cognitive Radio, especially under fading or shadowing effects. In order to evaluate the performance of a distributed system, it is commonly compared with the centralized system as an upper performance bound. Now the question is whether or not one can obtain a distributed strategy serving as an upper bound to benchmark any distributed ...
متن کاملOn some unresolved issues in finding optimum distributed detection schemes
Optimum distributed detection under the Neyman-Pearson criterion is considered for a general case with possibly dependent observations from sensor to sensor. The focus is on the parallel architecture. New necessary conditions are presented that relate the threshold used in the NP-optimum fusion rule to those used in the NP-optimum sensor rules. These results clearly illustrate that the necessar...
