The multisensor detection area partitioning is considered. An approach is presented to the fusion in each detection area where the sensor uses different thresholds and then at system level. The expressions of the detection probability and false alarm probability are given. An application of the method is illustrated to distributed CFAR detection systems. The result shows that the system detection probability may be improved by setting different thresholds for a detector.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
