Robust detection of known signals in asymmetric noise

Abstract
The detection of signals in noise with possibly asymmetric probability density functions is considered. The noise density model allows a symmetric contaminated-nominal central part and an arbitrary tail behavior. For detection of known signals, the robust nonlinear-correlator (NC) detector is obtained based on detector efficacy as performance criterion. The robustM-detector structure for constant-signal detection is also explicitly obtained.
