Detection of unknown-frequency sinusoids in noise: Spectral versus correlation domain

The purpose here is 1) to put into perspective the notions of spectral-versus correlation-domain detection algorithms, 2) to couple such decision rules with certain linear and nonlinear predetection-processing possibilities, and 3) to illustrate by simulation results the potential of a family of autoregressive (AR) detection statistics.
