Abstract

We consider two Monte-Carlo based methods for characterizing the scattering function of rapidly-varying sea clutter. The first method uses multiple particle filtering to estimate the clutter space-time covariance marix by exploiting the structure of the matrix. This method is then compared to a baseline approach that estimates the clutter covariance matrix based on the Weibull distribution approximation. Both methods are evaluated by formulating a detection problem that simulates a small moving target in heavy sea clutter.
