  • Abstract
    A detection problem is formulated for a bursty target in multiplicative noise. A power law detector is considered for this problem, with the detector exponent matched to the burstiness of the target. A simple analytic theory is related for the detector exponent: a theory applicable, in particular, to the family of gamma-Weibull multiplicative noise models
