| Description |
English: Circular Error Probable (CEP). The original concept of CEP was based on a circular bivariate normal distribution (CBN) with CEP as a parameter of the CBN just as μ and σ are parameters of the normal distribution. Munitions with this distribution behavior tend to cluster around the mean impact point, with most reasonably close, progressively fewer and fewer further away, and very few at long distance. That is, if CEP is n meters, 50% of rounds land within n meters of the mean impact, 43% between n and 2n, and 6.8% between 2n and 3n meters, and the proportion of rounds that land farther than three times the CEP from the mean is only 0.2%. |
