Abstract :
The generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT) is a standard tool for designing signal detectors. It produces detectors that perform well when the signal model is known, except for a fixed set of signal parameters. However, it is unable to accommodate multiple signal models. We introduce the multifamily likelihood ratio test, which extends the GLRT and alleviates this limitation.
