We consider the generic problem of detecting the presence or
absence of a weak signal in a noisy environment. The motivation behind
this problem is the idea of cognitive radios, where it is essential
for the secondary user to detect whether a frequency band is being
used by a known primary user. In this thesis we show that under even
weak uncertainty, robust detection becomes impossible below
a certain SNR, regardless of how many samples we take.
