Qualitative Properties of the F-Detector

Abstract

It is shown that an F detector reduces the number of beams in velocity space over which a search must be made before declaring a short period seismic array detection, that its main detection lobe is satisfactorily wide for practical purposes, and that simple F detection is poor at detecting mixed signals. Design considerations are given for selection of particular detection algorithms for different sizes and types of arrays.
