In probability and statistics, the generalized K-distribution is a three-parameter family of continuous probability distributions.
The distribution arises by compounding two gamma distributions. In each case, a re-parametrization of the usual form of the family of gamma distributions is used, such that the parameters are:
the mean of the distribution,
the usual shape parameter.
K-distribution is a special case of variance-gamma distribution, which in turn is a special case of generalised hyperbolic distribution. A simpler special case of the generalized K-distribution is often referred as the K-distribution.
Density
Suppose that a random variable
X
{\displaystyle X}
has gamma distribution with mean
σ
{\displaystyle \sigma }
and shape parameter
α
{\displaystyle \alpha }
, with
σ
{\displaystyle \sigma }
being treated as a random variable having another gamma distribution, this time with mean
μ
{\displaystyle \mu }
and shape parameter
β
{\displaystyle \beta }
. The result is that
X
{\displaystyle X}
has the following probability density function (pdf) for
x

where
K
{\displaystyle K}
is a modified Bessel function of the second kind. Note that for the modified Bessel function of the second kind, we have
K
ν

{\displaystyle K_{\nu }=K_{-\nu }}
. In this derivation, the K-distribution is a compound probability distribution. It is also a product distribution: it is the distribution of the product of two independent random variables, one having a gamma distribution with mean 1 and shape parameter
α
{\displaystyle \alpha }
, the second having a gamma distribution with mean
μ
{\displaystyle \mu }
and shape parameter
β
{\displaystyle \beta }
.
A simpler two parameter formalization of the K-distribution can be obtained by setting

as

{\displaystyle f_{X}(x;b,v)={\frac {2b}{\Gamma (v)}}\left({\sqrt {bx}}\right)^{v-1}K_{v-1}(2{\sqrt {bx}}),}
where
v
=
α
{\displaystyle v=\alpha }
is the shape factor,
b
=
α
/
μ
{\displaystyle b=\alpha /\mu }
is the scale factor, and
K
{\displaystyle K}
is the modified Bessel function of second kind. The above two parameter formalization can also be obtained by setting
α
=
1
{\displaystyle \alpha =1}
,
v
=
β
{\displaystyle v=\beta }
, and
b
=
β
/
μ
{\displaystyle b=\beta /\mu }
, albeit with different physical interpretation of
b
{\displaystyle b}
and
v
{\displaystyle v}
parameters. This two parameter formalization is often referred to as the K-distribution, while the three parameter formalization is referred to as the generalized K-distribution.
This distribution derives from a paper by Eric Jakeman and Peter Pusey (1978) who used it to model microwave sea echo. Jakeman and Tough (1987) derived the distribution from a biased random walk model. Keith D. Ward (1981) derived the distribution from the product for two random variables, z = a y, where a has a chi distribution and y a complex Gaussian distribution. The modulus of z, |z|, then has K-distribution.

Applications
K-distribution arises as the consequence of a statistical or probabilistic model used in synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) imagery. The K-distribution is formed by compounding two separate probability distributions, one representing the radar cross-section, and the other representing speckle that is a characteristic of coherent imaging. It is also used in wireless communication to model composite fast fading and shadowing effects.
