Revision as of 11:36, 28 February 2014

The literature on the circular error probable (CEP) is extensive and diverse: Applications for CEP are found in areas such as target shooting, missile ballistics, or positional accuracy of navigation and guidance systems like GPS. The statistical foundation also has applications in (wireless) signal processing.

Groups of CEP publications

The following list is by no means intended to be complete. In particular, it contains no references to the 3D-generalization to the spherical error probable (SEP). Beware that the quality of the listed publications is mixed. The relevant publications may be roughly categorized into four groups:
