On the energy detection of unknown signals over fading channels
Abstract
This paper presents another look at the problem of energy detection of unknown signals over different fading channels. We start with the no diversity case and present some alternative closed-form expressions for the probability of detection (P/sub d/) to those recently reported in [V.I. Kostylev, May 2002]. We then investigate the system performance when different diversity schemes are employed. It is shown that there is not much improvement in the probability of detection when either the probability of false alarm (P/sub f/) exceeds 0/1 or the average signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) exceeds 20 dB. In addition, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves comparing the performance of equal-gain combining (EGC), selection combining (SC), and switch and stay combining (SSC) are presented. As an example, EGC introduces a gain of two orders of magnitude from the probability of miss perspective compared to the no diversity case while both SC and SSC introduce a gain of about one order of magnitude.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
