Abstract :
Circular average error (CAE) and spherical average error (SAE) are defined as alternatives to the circular error probable (CEP) and spherical error probable (SEP) as univariate measures of error ellipses and ellipsoids for two-and three-dimensional radars. Results are expressed graphically. Approximate formulas are given for all four measures.
