The Performance of Nonparametric Detectors Using Spectral Estimates.

Abstract

M.N. Woinsky proposed the application of various non-parametric statistics to spectral data in order to detect narrow band signals. He determined the asymptotic relative efficiency (ARE) of two such tests. Hansen and Olsen have found the distribution of ranks of spectral data for two types of signal embedded in noise. Here the distribution of ranks for a third type of signal is derived. The performance of various non-parametric statistics for these three signals are calculated. (Author)
