In this paper, we consider the problem of detecting an unknown signal, belonging to a conic region, in the presence of complex Gaussian disturbance. We assume that the cone aperture parameter, which ranges in a pre-assigned interval, is unknown. Hence, we devise two decision rules which are respectively based on the Generalized Likelihood Ratio Test (GLRT) and on the Multifamily Likelihood Ratio Test (MFLRT). Both the receivers ensure the Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR). At the analysis stage, we compare the performance of the two decision strategies in correspondence of different parameters for the useful signal component.

Abstract
In this paper, we consider the problem of detecting an unknown signal, belonging to a conic region, in the presence of complex Gaussian disturbance. We assume that the cone aperture parameter, which ranges in a pre-assigned interval, is unknown. Hence, we devise two decision rules which are respectively based on the Generalized Likelihood Ratio Test (GLRT) and on the Multifamily Likelihood Ratio Test (MFLRT). Both the receivers ensure the Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR). At the analysis stage, we compare the performance of the two decision strategies in correspondence of different parameters for the useful signal component.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
