Abstract

Addition of independent noise to measurements can improve performance of some suboptimal detectors under certain conditions. In this letter, sufficient conditions under which the performance of a suboptimal detector cannot be enhanced by additional independent noise are derived according to the Neyman-Pearson criterion. Also, sufficient conditions are obtained to specify when the detector performance can be improved. In addition to a generic condition, various explicit sufficient conditions are proposed for easy evaluation of improvability. Finally, a numerical example is presented and the practicality of the proposed conditions is discussed.
