Characterization of Sea Clutter Amplitude and Doppler Bin PDFs

Abstract

The document establishes a minimum baseline for reporting the amplitude characterization of sea clutter and its associated parameters. The document mainly concentrates on distributions with two parameters where the two parameters are generally called the shape and scale parameters. Matlab code is provided for method of moment and maximum likelihood fits of common sea clutter distributions.
