Abstract
We develop computer simulation procedures which enable us to generate any correlated non-Gaussian radar clutter that can be modeled as a spherically invariant random process (SIRP). In most cases, when the clutter is a correlated non-Gaussian random process, performance of the optimal radar signal processor cannot be evaluated analytically. Therefore, in order to evaluate such processors, there is a need for efficient computer simulation of the clutter. We present two canonical simulation procedures for the generation of correlated non-Gaussian clutter. A new approach for the goodness-of-fit test is proposed in order to assess the performance of the simulation procedure.Keywords
