Asymptotic regime for impropriety tests of complex random vectors
Impropriety testing for complex-valued vector has been considered lately due
to potential applications ranging from digital communications to complex media
imaging. This paper provides new results for such tests in the asymptotic
regime, i.e. when the vector dimension and sample size grow commensurately to
infinity. The studied tests are based on invariant statistics named impropriety
coefficients. Limiting distributions for these statistics are derived, together
with those of the Generalized Likelihood Ratio Test (GLRT) and Roy's test, in
the Gaussian case. This characterization in the asymptotic regime allows also
to identify a phase transition in Roy's test with potential application in
detection of complex-valued low-rank subspace corrupted by proper noise in
large datasets. Simulations illustrate the accuracy of the proposed asymptotic
approximations.Comment: 11 pages, 8 figures, submitted to IEEE TS
