The Nakagami and its Related Distributions
Author:
Abstract: This paper introduces the Nakagami distribution which is usually used to simulate the ultrasound image. The Nakagami distribution is related to the gamma distribution, the Rayleigh distribution, the weibull distribution, the chi-square distribution and the exponential distribution. Through the gamma distribution, it’s much easier to derive the moments of a Nakagami random variable. The confidence interval for the ratio of medians from two independent Nakagami distributions is constructed.
