文摘

In this paper, we investigate the optimal local sensor decision rule based on non-ideal transmission channels between local sensors and the fusion center for distributed target detection system. The optimality of a likelihood-ratio test (LRT)-based local decision rule at local sensor, which requires only the knowledge of channel statistics instead of instantaneous channel state information (CSI), is established. The coupled local decision rule at each sensor is derived in a closed-form for coherent BPSK and OOK and non-coherent OOK. The iterative person-by-person optimization (PBPO) algorithm is employed to solve the coupled local thresholds. Simulation analysis reveals that the derived thresholds according to the local decision rule are consistent to the exhaustive searching. Furthermore, the detection performance of the system with the proposed optimal local decision rule for different reception modes and modulations is analyzed and compared.
