The research addresses the problem of analytical description of energy detection procedure being one of the most favourable mechanism of white-space detection for cognitive radio and Internet-of-Things as well as unknown signal detection in radars and Unmanned Ground/Aerial Vehicle applications. A novel closed-form analytic solutions for average quality metrics (average receiver operating characteristic and area under the AROC curve) are derived for a generic shadowed fading channel model. Numerical simulations verify the computational effectiveness of the derived expressions compared to straightforward numerical integration and analytical treatment demonstrated their consistency with the several specific simplified cases widely used in engineering practice. The results enable one to estimate signal detection quality on the stage of wireless communications' system design.
