Abstract
A new class of nonparametric detectors based onm- interval partitioning is introduced. It is easier to treat analytically and implement practically than the widely used class of nonparametric detectors based on rank partitioning of the received signal space. In addition, these new detectors are robust or relatively insensitive to the underlying noise distribution. If the quantiles of the noise distribution are known exactly, the structure of the detector is particularly simple. Some general results for an adaptive system, when the quantiles of the noise distribution must be estimated, were also obtained.Keywords
