Simulation of Statistical Distributions using the Memoryless Nonlinear Transform

摘要

In support of Task 07/040 (support to AIR 7000), the generation of correlated sea clutter returns using the Memoryless Nonlinear Transform is investigated. The generation of such clutter is critical to the performance analysis of radar detection schemes under realistic clutter scenarios. This feature must be incorporated into clutter models being built at DSTO to test radar detector performance. Examples of the transform's application is given for a number of target distributions of interest.
