The Incoherent Sequential Detection of a Sine Wave in White Noise.
ResearchPublished 1962
A treatment of the distribution of ending times of the sequential Bayes test for the presence in white noise of a sine wave known except for carrier phase. The algebraic computation is carried out for the case when signal is absent and the false alarm probability is very low. The paper obtains the integral equation satisfied by the distribution of the ending time, but not the solution of this equation. 14 pp.

This publication is part of the RAND paper series. The paper series was a product of RAND from 1948 to 2003 that captured speeches, memorials, and derivative research, usually prepared on authors' own time and meant to be the scholarly or scientific contribution of individual authors to their professional fields. Papers were less formal than reports and did not require rigorous peer review.
