Asymptotically Optimal One-Bit Quantizer Design for Weak-signal Detection in Generalized Gaussian Noise and Lossy Binary Communication Channel
share
In this paper, quantizer design for weak-signal detection under arbitrary binary channel in generalized Gaussian noise is studied. Since the performances of the generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT) and Rao test are asymptotically characterized by the noncentral chi-squared probability density function (PDF), the threshold design problem can be formulated as a noncentrality parameter maximization problem. The theoretical property of the noncentrality parameter with respect to the threshold is investigated, and the optimal threshold is shown to be found in polynomial time with appropriate numerical algorithm and proper initializations. In certain cases, the optimal threshold is proved to be zero. Finally, numerical experiments are conducted to substantiate the theoretical analysis.
