Considering the application limitation of Likelihood Ratio Test fusion rule based on information of Channel Statistics using Series expansion (LRT-CSS),and the detection performance limitation of the Censoring based Mixed Fusion rule (CMF),a new LRT fusion rule based on information of channel statistics has been presented using Laplace approximation (LRT-CSL). Theoretical analysis and simulations show that the proposed fusion rule provides better detection performance than the Censoring based Mixed Fusion (CMF) and LRT-CSS fusion rules. Furthermore,compared with LRT-CSS fusion rule,the proposed fusion rule expands the application range of likelihood ratio test fusion rule.展开更多
