Description:

This new textbook is intended for contemporary signal detection and parameter estimation courses offered at advanced undergraduate or graduate levels. It presents a unified treatment of detection problems arising in radar/sonar signal processing and modern digital communication systems. The material is comprehensive in scope and addresses signal processing and communications applications with an emphasis on fundamental principles. In addition to standard topics normally covered in such a course, the author incorporates recent advances in the field, such as the asymptotic performance of detectors, sequential detection, generalized likelihood ratio tests (GLRTs), robust detection, the…
