본 논문에서는 다중 표적의 중첩이라는 상황에 대한 새로운 해결 방식을 소개한다. 비선형 표적의 위치와 속도에 대한 추적을 중심으로 표적과 비표적의 중첩이 일어나는 순간 이후 분리되었을 때 추적중인 표적을 지속적으로 유지할 수 있는 방법에 대해 이야기 하고자 한다. 이 논문에서 제안된 알고리즘은 예측 명중위치 개념과 최대 잡음수준을 이용한 칼만필터 기반의 적응 상호작용 다중모델 기법으로 측정된 위치값과 예측된 명중위치 사이의 차이를 고려한 변형된 칼만필터 개념을 이용한다. 이 논문에서는 비선형 표적의 가속도를 시변 변수인 표적의 추가적인 잡음으로 두고 각각의 가속도 간격의 정도에 따라 얻어지는 모든 잡음에 대한 변수에 의해 각각의 하부 모델들을 특성화시켰다. 제안된 알고리즘은 표적의 운동특성에 따라 적응적으로 기법을 선택할 수 있는 선택적 방식을 구현하고자 한다. 표적의 기동중에 나타나는 가속도를 효과적으로 다루기 위하여 잡음의 크기가 급격히 증가하는 경우 그 증가분을 가속도로 인식하여 기동표적 관계식에 이용한다. 그리고 제안된 알고리즘의 수행 가능성을 보여주기 위하여 몇 가지 예를 제시하였다.

A conventional Closest Point of Approach (CPA) analysis allows a non-maneuvering moving source that is radiating a constant frequency tone to be located using doppler shifted frequency measurements obtained by a stationary receiver. The original frequency, relative speed of the target, time at the CPA, and range from the CPA to the sensor are estimated by the conventional CPA. However, this paper proposes a new CPA analysis that allows the motion parameters of a target to be estimated using the bearing and frequency measurements obtained by a moving receiver that has a constant velocity. The validity of the proposed estimation scheme is confirmed through a performance analysis and simulation study.

For a long time target maneuvers in tracking problem have been a difficult task to handle. In order to solve this problems. there have been various tracking techniques. In the development of a tracking filter for a maneuvering target, maneuver detection threshold plays a key role. However, no study of filter performance the varying maneuver detection threshold has been carried out so far. Instead, the maneuver detection have been chosen empirically. In this paper, the effect of detection threshold selection on the performance of the tracking filters was considered and the relationships between maneuvers and the detection threshold have been analyzed by simulation.

The problem of maneuvering target tracking has been studied in the field of the state estimation over decades. The Kalman filter has been widely used to estimate the states of the target, but in the presence of a maneuver, its performance may be seriously degraded. In this paper, to solve this problem and track a maneuvering target effectively, DNA coding-based intelligent Kalman filter (DNA coding-based IKF) is proposed. The proposed method can overcome the mathematical limits of conventional methods and can effectively track a maneuvering target with only one filter by using the fuzzy logic based on DNA coding method. The tracking performance of the proposed method is compared with those of the adaptive interacting multiple model (AIMM) method and the GA-based IKF in computer simulations.

In this paper, a guidance law for intercepting maneuvering target with a desired impact angle is proposed. The proposed guidance law is modified from the optimal impact angle control law for a fixed target and given by a biased PN law with the impact angle control term in addition to the conventional PN law. Three different kinds of desired impact angles in the respect of LOS angle, flight path angle, and relative flight path angle to the target are defined. The performance of the proposed guidance law is investigated via numerical simulations for various air-to-air engagement scenarios.

Maneuvering targets are difficult for the Kalman filter to track since the target model of tracking filter might not fit the real target trajectory and the statistical characteristics of the target maneuver are unknown in advance. In order to track such a wildly maneuvering target, several schemes had been proposed and improved the tracking performance in some extent. In this paper a Kalman filter-based scheme is proposed for maneuvering target tracking. The proposed scheme estimates the target acceleration input vector directly from the feature of maneuvering target trajectories and updates the simple Kalman tracker by use of the acceleration estimates. Simulation results for various target profiles are analyzed for a comparison of the performances of our proposed scheme with that of conventional trackers.

If a moving target has a linear characteristics, the Kalman filter can estimate relatively accurate the location of a target, but this performance depends on how the dynamic status characteristics of the target is accurately modeled. In many practical problems of tracking a maneuvering target, a simple kinematic model can fairly accurately describe the target dynamics for a wide class of maneuvers. However, since the target can exhibit a wide range of dynamic characteristics, no fixed SKF(Simple Kalman filter) can be matched to estimate, to the required accuracy, the states of the target for every specific maneuver. In this paper, a new AKF(Active Kalman filter) is proposed to solve this problem The process noise covariance level of the Kalman filter is adjusted at each time step according to the study result which uses the neural network algorithm. It is demonstrated by means of a computer simulation that the tracking capability of the proposed AKF(Active Kalman filter) is better than that of the SKF(Simple Kalman Filter).

In this paper, we propose a new tracking algorighm that achieves good tracking performance in manuevering targets while capping the computation load to "low". Kalman Filler (KF) is generally known to be poor in tracking maneuvering targets. IMM, on the other hand, compensates the weakness inherent in the mundane KF and is considered as a promising alternative for tracking maneuvering targets. However, IMM suffers from substantially increased computational load as the number of models increases. To remedy this problem, we propose a new method focused to reducing the computational load and attaining the desirable tracking performance at least as good that of IMM. It is achieved by essentially adopting the structure of IMM and injecting Optimal Two-Stage Kalman Estimator (OTSKE). The representative simulation shows a reduction in computational load with the proposed OTSKE but further reduction is shown achieved (by about 58%) with the Interacting Acceleration Compenstation (IAC)-OTSKE approach. approach.

This paper presents a new fuzzy-neural-network based interacting multiple model (FNNBIMM) algorithm for tracking a maneuvering target. To effectively handle the unknown target acceleration, this paper regards it as additional noise, time-varying variance to target model. Each sub model characterized by the variance of the overall process noise, which is obtained on the basis of each acceleration interval. Since it is hard to approximate this time-varying variance adaptively owing to the unknown acceleration, the FNN is utilized to precisely approximate this time-varying variance. The error back-propagation method is utilized to optimize each FNN. To show the feasibility of the proposed algorithm, a numerical example is provided.
