  • When statistically modeling a stealth aircraft, conventional methods estimate characteristic parameters via calculating the statistics of radar cross section (RCS) directly, which may lead to relatively large fitting errors. Therefore,we introduce the Bayesian-Markov chain Monte Carlo (Bayesian-MCMC) method to improve the parameter accuracy so as to reduce the fitting errors. The posterior parameter estimators of the Chi-square and lognormal models are derived in the Bayesian framework. Then the MCMC sampling algorithm is adopted to calculate the parameter estimates by constructing Markov chains. Numerical results show that the estimation errors of the proposed method are 1-2 orders of magnitude lower than the error convergence threshold. Besides, the proposed method is suitable for both target fluctuation models and improves the curve fitting accuracy by more than 50%.
