  • Abstract
    Sea clutter data provided by Thales Naval France are analyzed in order to determine their statistical and correlation properties. The K-compound distribution is found to match the best the amplitude pdf of the data. A new method is proposed for estimating the associated scale and shape parameters. Two innovative approaches are also described for simulating the sea clutter. The first one is based on the K-compound pdf model, while the second one is a 2D MA kernel based generating procedure.
