Heavy-Tailed Sea Clutter Modeling for Shore-based Radar Detection
Abstract
Detecting targets embedded in sea clutter poses a clutter-modeling challenge for marine surveillance radar. In this paper, the statistical modeling of sea clutter observed by an X-band high-resolution coastal radar at very low grazing angles (1.05°–1.72°) is investigated. The aim of this paper is to identify the best-fitting statistical distribution to the data with particular attention to the application in the detection scenario. The global …
