Simulated data is shown to accurately model real data as assessed by comparing unprocessed data characteristics from real and simulated data sets as well as outputs from a single-channel coherent detectors and space-time adaptive processing based detectors. The proposed model is shown to provide improved performance over recently proposed models.en621journal article
