Optimal array processor performance trade-offs under directional uncertainty

Detection performance in terms of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve is obtained for three specific problems involving either signal or noise source location uncertainty. The array processors are optimum in the sense that they form the likelihood ratio of the outputs of the individual array elements. Performance trade-offs due to signal uncertainty, signal and noise source location uncertainty, and array size are presented
