Abstract :
The detection errors of a single-bit digital crosscorrelator for detecting bandlimited Gaussian reflections in noise are investigated, and the probability-density function of the correlator output due to finite-interval crosscorrelation and corruption of the received waveform by wideband Gaussian noise is derived and compared with experimental results.
