Abstract

The problem of detecting zero-mean stochastic signals is considered for the local, or small-signal, case. Two general locally-optimum detector structures are derived, one based on an additive-noise model, the other based on a scale-change model. A third (suboptimal) scheme based on null-zone detection is proposed. Expressions are presented for the comparison of these detectors on the basis of asymptotic efficiencies relative to each other and relative to a power detector. Numerical results are given for the particular case of generalized Gaussian noise.
