Abstract :
The problem of detecting an unknown, random, stationary, non-Gaussian signal that is common to two spatially separated sensors is considered. The signal is assumed to have a nonvanishing bispectrum. The measurement noise sequences at the two sensors are either mutually independent with arbitrary cumulant spectra, or dependent with vanishing bispectra. Two statistical tests are presented for signal detection when the noise statistics are unknown. The performance of the tests is illustrated by computer simulation examples
