Abstract:

Addressing the issue of low accuracy in calculating the hit probability of high-performance ammunition in ultra-small subsample using traditional methods, an improved algorithm based on Bayesian hypothesis testing is proposed. Under the assumption that the distribution of ammunition impact points follows a circular dispersion, the calculation formula for the hit probability is derived by analyzing the marginal distribution of the ammunition miss distance. By utilizing Bayesian hypothesis testing, the cumulative distribution function of the hypothesis testing parameters is calculated using both indirect and direct algorithms while fully utilizing prior information. The ammunition impact point density is estimated under the premise of satisfying the confidence interval required by the specified testing level. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm significantly simplifies the calculation steps and improves the accuracy of the calculation results compared to traditional methods, providing a reference for calculating the hit probability of ammunition under ultra-small subsample.

Key words: ultra-small subsample, Bayesian inference, ammunition hit probability, dispersion density, hypothesis testing
