Abstract :
Localization of a non-cooperative target with binary detectors is considered. A general expression for the Fisher information for estimation of target location and power is developed. This general expression is then used to derive closed-form approximations for the Cramér-Rao bound for the case of non-coherent detectors. Simulations show that the approximations are quite consistent with the exact bounds.
