The asymptotic performance of the two-sample locally optimum rank detector for random signals buried in signal-dependent noise and additive noise is consigered in this paper. It is shown that the locally optimum rank detector, a nonparametric detector, has reasonable asymptotic performance for a class of correlated random signals, compared with the locally optimum detector. It is noteworthy that the the two-sample locally optimum rank detector perform almost the same with the one-sample locally optimum rank detector.

A simpler nonparametric detector test statistic based on reference observation in addition to the rank statistics of regular observations is suggested in this letter. Using reference observations instead of sign statistics helps us a simpler detector structure especially for random signals buried in multiplicative noise.
