Abstract

We address the design of binary local sensor quantizers for decentralized detection over multiple access channels. Our goal is to minimize the error probability at the fusion center using a single snapshot of local observations. Considering both the synchronized and asynchronous transmissions among sensors, we establish the optimality of a likelihood ratio test for both cases. For the case of asynchronous transmissions, to compensate for the unknown fading channel parameters and transmission delays, we propose a structure consisting of a RAKE receiver and a square-law detector. Simulations results are presented to demonstrate effectiveness of the design procedure.
