Performance analysis of compressive receivers used for signal detection

A performance comparison between a compressive receiver and a wideband radiometer using sine waves and binary phase-shift-keyed (PSK) signals for the detected waveform is presented. The results indicate that the compressive receiver outperforms the radiometer in detecting the presence of a sine wave. The results also show that the compressive receiver exhibits superior performance when the input contains a binary PSK signal and the system is operating under the conditions of low input signal-to-noise ratio and low probability of false alarm.<
