Abstract
Consider the detection of coherently related narrowband signals in the presence of noise. Non-stationary higher order spectra (HOS) are defined, and non-parametric estimators of the first two non-stationary HOS, the non-stationary power spectrum and non-stationary bispectrum are developed. The finite sample and asymptotic statistics of these estimators are presented and used to compare their detection performance to the stationary power spectrum for the case mentioned above. Detection performance is quantified in terms of probability of detection as a function of signal-to-noise ratio at a fixed false alarm rate. Both theoretical performance and experimentally measured detection performance are presented. Normalization of the HOS is shown to have an adverse effect on their detection performance, while no normalization results in detection performance that is superior to the detection performance of the periodogram estimator of the power spectrum.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
