  • Abstract
    A robust generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT) detector is derived for targets in multiplicative noise with gamma-Weibull statistics. The target is assumed to have a spatial distribution (burstiness) modeled by the incomplete binomial distribution. The GLRT detector is found to be similar in performance to the optimized power law detector.
