Hello Aabid,
In my opinion both receiver sensitivity and the detection threshold are closely related because if we see receiver sensitivity is defined as the minimum average power to detect a signal and on the other hand the detection threshold is also the minimum average power to detect a signal received by the receiver.
I guess these are related terms. I hope this will help you.
