False positives—or “ghost modes”—in RF demodulation pipelines inflate operational costs when systems respondto spurious detections. We quantify the economic and latencyimpact of ghost hits using anomaly detection modules from theSignalIntelligenceSystem. Iso-ghost contours illustrateregions of high false-positive risk, while cost curves demonstratethe penalty of over-recovery under real-time constraints. Togetherwith our companion work on probabilistic agentic sweeps … Continue reading Ghost Modes and the Cost of Over-Recovery in RF Demodulation
