Abstract

This work discusses signal detection using a multiple hypothesis test under an FDR consideration of Benjamini and Hochberg. Compared to the classical FWE criterion, the FDR criterion leads to more powerful tests and controls the errors at a reasonable level. We prove that the conditions required by the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure are satisfied in the proposed detection scheme.
