Abstract
Optimum receivers for detecting binary signals in additive colored Gaussian noise are analyzed and their performance evaluated in terms of bit error probabilities (Pₑ) . Implementation and practical design implications of such receivers is discussed, Evaluation of P for receivers that are optimum for additive e r white Gaussian noise (WGN) environments but due to jamming or "friendly" ECM interferers , must operate in a colored Gaussian noise environment has been carried out. It was generally found that such receivers do not perform significantly worse than receivers specifically designed to operate in a colored noise environment. Examples were considered in which the colored noise interference was modeled as the output of a one-pole filter driven by WGN. Additional work has been carried out on the jamming of binary (colored noise) receivers using a deterministic jammer model. While this modeling assumption needs to be refined, it has been demonstrated that a power constrained jammer can seriously degrade the performance of a receiver designed to operate in a colored noise environment.
