The course aims to provide a deep understanding of the subject Detection Theory. Detection theory can be applied to many different fields, and within communication theory it plays a central role. The department’s research is dominated by different aspects of communication. To have a solid basis and skills in detection is of fundamental importance for a large fraction of LTH’s doctoral students. The course provides them with a solid scientific basis for communication theory
