Popis:	The appropriateness of the two-parameter beta distribution as a characterization of RCS scintillation for a complex target is developed and discussed with particular attention to evidence afforded by experimental data. Distributions of measured data supplied to the authors by the Boeing Corporation for the 727-100C aircraft and by Dynalectron Corporation for the RATSCAT-measured drone are compared with Rayleigh, chi-square. log-normal, and beta distributions. A theoretical statistical analysis forms the basis for the observations and conclusions from the experimental data: although the distribution of RCS of a complex target is sometimes well represented by the Rayleigh distribution, it is very often best represented by the beta distribution.
