This book provides an introduction to the basic theory and techniques of signaldetection and estimation. It provides essential background for engineers andscientists working in a number of fields including communications controlsignal and image processing radar and sonar radio astronomy seismologyremote sensing and instrumentation. The treatment can be used as a textbook inseveral instruction modes including a single course a twotiered combinationof an introductory course and an advanced course or two separate courses onein signal detection the other in estimation.
