Detection of gravitational waves from inspiraling compact binaries using a network of interferometric detectors

Abstract

We formulate the data analysis problem for the detection of the Newtonian waveform from an inspiraling compact-binary by a network of arbitrarily oriented and arbitrarily distributed laser interferometric gravitational wave detectors. We obtain for the first time the relation between the optimal statistic and the magnitude of the network correlation vector, which is constructed from the matched network-filter. This generalizes the calculation reported in an earlier work (gr-qc/9906064), where the detectors are taken to be coincident.
