The detection of weak transient signal buried in non-Gaussian noise is investigated. Non-Gaussian noise is modeled by Gaussian mixture distribution. 3-level quantizer is used as a nondynamic stochastic resonance method to enhance SNR of weak signal. NL-length samples of signal are arranged into a matrix. Every column of the matrix is calculated into M-level decomposition. Based on the squared value of the detail and approximation coefficients, a novel Power-Law detector in wavelet domain is established. Numerical experiments and comparison show that, on the same SNR and false alarm rate, proposed method could provide higher detection probability.

We approach the theoretical problem of compressing a signal dominated by Gaussian noise. We present expressions for the compression ratio which can be reached, under the light of Shannon's noiseless coding theorem, for a linearly quantized stochastic Gaussian signal (noise). The compression ratio decreases logarithmically with the amplitude of the frequency spectrum P(f) of the noise. Entropy values and compression rates are shown to depend on the shape of this power spectrum, given different normalizations. The cases of white noise (w.n.), fnp power-law noise (including 1/f noise), ( w.n. +1/f) noise, and piecewise ( w.n. +1/f | w.n. +1/f2) noise are discussed, while quantitative behaviors and useful approximations are provided.
