Bipercentile Parameter Estimators of Bias Reduction for Generalized Pareto Clutter Model

The generalised Pareto distribution is an efficient model to characterise the high-resolution sea clutter. Robust and precise estimation of the model's parameters is a precondition of effective target detection in sea clutter. It is known that the explicit bipercentile (BiP) estimators are efficient in computation and robust to outliers. In this study, it is proved that the explicit BiP estimators...
