This letter deals with the adaptive detection problem in compound Gaussian sea clutter with inverse Gaussian texture when the mismatched signal occurs. In order to reject the mismatched signal, we introduce a fictitious signal to the null hypothesis based on the adaptive beamformer orthogonal rejection test (ABORT). We adopt the two-step generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT) criterion and develop two selective detectors, i.e., the ABORT-like compound Gaussian with inverse Gaussian (A-IGCG) detector and ABORT-like maximum a posteriori (MAP) compound Gaussian with inverse Gaussian (AM-IGCG) detector. Both the proposed detectors are proved to be constant false alarm rate (CFAR) detectors. The several experiments that compare the proposed detectors with other selective detectors and compound Gaussian detectors are conducted by using two types of real sea data, i.e., IPIX 1998 and 2019 real sea data. The numerical results indicate that the novel detectors exhibit significant tradeoffs between performances of detection and selectivity property.
