A note on estimation and test for the rayleigh amplitude distribution
In an expository paper, Siddiqui (1962), presented and investigated the origin of the Rayleigh Power Distribution.He also discussed the problems of estimation and fitting the distribution to some numerical data. In this article we discuss two problems connected with the Rayleigh Amplitude Distribution (RAD). The first is an extension to the work done by Siddiqui on estimation, where the second is concerned with testing the equality of several Rayleigh Amplitude Distributions, and in this context we derive the asymptotic null distribution of the test criterion.
