Abstract
This paper presents the approaching target above ground tracking based on Kalman filter applied to the proximity sensor for the active defense system. The proximity sensor located on the front of the countermeasure is not easy to detect when the anti-tank threat enters a fragment dispersion range due to limited antenna beamwidth. In addition, it is difficult for the proximity sensor to detect the anti-tank threat accurately at a terrestrial environment including various clutters. To solve these problems, this study presents the approaching target above ground tracking based on Kalman filter and applies the novel estimation method for a noise covariance matrix to improve a tracking performance. Then, a high tracking performance of Kalman filter applied the proposed noise covariance matrix is presented through field firing test results and the validity of the proposed study is examined.
