Detecting gravitational waves from inspiraling binaries with a network of detectors: Coherent versus coincident strategies

We compare two strategies of multidetector detection of compact binary inspiral signals, namely, the coincidence and the coherent. For simplicity we consider here two identical detectors having the same power spectral density of noise, that of initial LIGO, located in the same place and having the same orientation. We consider …
