On optimal threshold and structure in threshold system based detector

Threshold systems are widely used in nonlinear signal detection. The optimal threshold and the optimal structure are crucial to obtain good performance. In this paper, we propose an efficient method to estimate optimal threshold in a threshold system based detector (TD). In addition, we investigate the structural issue of TD and propose a technique to determine the optimal structure. An optimal...
