The accuracy with which detection and false alarm probabilities can be estimated with a limited amount of measured radar data is addressed. A simple simulation method for estimating the statistical performance of a radar detection system is presented. Confidence limits and a rule of thumb for accuracy for the estimated probabilities are presented along with procedures for calculating them. It is concluded that the minimum value of N used in a detection radar signal simulation should be 10/P/sub FA/ when the simple simulation method is used, where P/sub FA/ is the probability of false alarm, and that a value closer to 100/P/sub FA/ is preferable.<>
