The Performance of Kolmogorov–Smirnov Statistic in Noise Identification

Article Preview

Abstract:

Noise identification is one of the most important issues in radar and sonar engineering, in which Kolmogorov–Smirnov (KS) statistic is widely adopted. Although KS statistic is the most reliable method till now, it does not have high precision as people believe. The performance of KS statistic is studied in this work, while an experiment is carried out to show the precision of KS statistic, including both test and recognition. The result could help researchers decreasing error of using KS statistic in the future.
