Abstract
Ryu et al. proposed a multiple target angle tracking algorithm using the angular measurement obtained from the signal subspace estimated by the output of sensor array. Ryu's algorithm has good features that it has no data association problem and simple structure. But its performance is seriously degraded in the low signal-to-noise ratio, and it uses the angular measurement obtained from the signal subspace of sampling time, even though the signal subspace is continuously updated by the output of sensor array. For improving the tracking performance of Ryu's algorithm, a measurement fusion method is derived based on ML(Maximum Likelihood) in this paper, and it admits us to use the angular measurements obtained form the adjacent signal subspaces as well as the signal subspace of sampling time. The new target angle tracking algorithm is proposed using the derived measurement fusion method. The proposed algorithm has a better tracking performance than that of Ryu's algorithm and it sustains the good features of Ryu's algorithm.
