Near-optimum quantization for signal detection
Wael A. Hashlamoun, Pramod K. Varshney · IEEE Transactions on Communications · 1996
A heuristic approach to design quantizers for signal detection is presented. Quantizer parameters are obtained that minimize a tight upper bound on the probability of error. This approach is applied to the design of distributed detection systems. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate its near-optimum performance.
