Abstract :
We define and compare statistical characteristics of estimate of mean power of signals reflected from meteorological formations (MF). Their dependences on training sample size, power of MF, type and level of interperiod correlation of reflections from MF are analyzed. Rational ways of practical implementation of MF mean power estimate are demonstrated.
