In addition, driven by the challenge of improving the state-of-the-art approach, we propose a bottom-up method that leads us to the formulation of a new objective function (and posterior probability estimator) corresponding to a novel $f$-divergence referred to as shifted log (SL).

Nevertheless, its asymptotic performance is proved to be identical to the original GLRT, showing that the statistically dependence of the measurements has no impact on the detection performance in the asymptotic scenario.

This is because it requires to carry out two formidable tasks a) the computation of the mutual information between the channel input and output, and b) its maximization with respect to the signal distribution at the channel input.
