Abstract :
In this paper, we present an effective method for testing radar clutter distribution in the case of short observation sequence. The proposed method firstly transforms a clutter sequence from an unknown distribution by a hypothetic distribution function and the inverse function of standard normal distribution, and then tests whether the transformed sequence comes from a standard normal distribution using simple third-order moment to decide the original sequence distribution type
