Signal-to-Noise Ratio Requirements for Greatest-of-Device Followed by Integrator

Abstract

Derivations and programs are presented for evaluation of the required input signal-to-noise ratio for specified output performance of a Greatest-Of- device followed by an integrator, as a function of: N, the number of channels in the Greatest-Of; M, the number of independent samples in the integrator; P sub F, the false alarm probability; and P sub D, the detection probability. Several numerical examples are presented, for the special case of P sub D = 0.5.
