Abstract :
A valid classifier for amplitude statistic models of radar clutter is proposed, in which the clutter is modeled as the alpha stable distribution and the clutter series whose statistic distributions subject to five traditional models such as Rayleigh, Weibull, Log-norm, Rice and K distribution is recognized based on the exponents of alpha stable distribution. Simulation results show that the approach has high recognition precision and less computation burden
