Summary: 
The locally optimum rank detector achieves a simpler detector structure when reference observations, in addition to regular observations, are available. Without reference observations, we have to use the sign statistics of regular observations, and using the sign statistics results in a complex detector structure. Instead, more computations are necessary to deal with additional reference observations.
