In this paper, we discussed automatic target tracking algorithms for diver detection sonar that observes penetration forces of coastal military installations and major infrastructures. First of all, we analyzed sea trial data in diver detection sonar and composed automatic target tracking algorithms based on track existence probability as track quality measure in clutter environment. In particular, these are presented track management algorithms which include track initiation, confirmation, termination, merging and target tracking algorithms which include single target tracking IPDAF (Integrated Probabilistic Data Association Filter) and multitarget tracking LMIPDAF (Linear Multi-target Integrated Probabilistic Data Association Filter). And we analyzed performances of automatic target tracking algorithms using sea trial data and monte carlo simulation data.

Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is a technique to deliver a high dose to a target region and a low dose to a critical organ through only one or a few irradiation. The SRS must be planned exactly. Currently the surgery plan is peformed by trial and error method. There are many questions about the reliability and reproducibility of the plan result. This study Improve each step of the Oh's method based on heuristic target shaping to obtain the better result. The target was reconstructed using cylinders with same height and the neighbored cylinders were combined according to the difference of each center and diameter. Then, spheres were packed within each cylinders by the packing rules. Two virtual targets were used to compare this method with Oh's method. As a result, the numbers of isocenter were successfully reduced - more than $35\%$ and $26\%$ - without serious differences of proscription isodose to tumour volume ratio (PITV) and maximum dose to proscription dose ratio (MDPD). This technique using cylinder piling and sphere packing will be a helpful tool to planner in stereotactic radiosurgery.

This paper presents an target tracking algorithm for fusion of radar and infrared(IR) sensor measurement data. Generally, fusion methods with Kalman filter assume that processing data obtained by radar and IR sensor are synchronized. It has much limitation to apply the fusion methods to real systems. A key point which is taken into account in the proposed algorithm is the fact that two asynchronous dissimilar data are fused by compensating the time difference of the measurements using radar's ranges and track state vectors. The proposed fusion algorithm in the paper is evaluated via a computer simulation with the existing track fusion and measurement fusion methods.

In this paper, a multiple target angle tracking algorithm that can avoid data association problem and has a simple structure is proposed by obtaining the angular innovation of the targets from a signal subspace. The signal subspace is recursively estimated by a signal subspace tracking algorithm, such as PAST. A nonlinear matrix equation which satisfy the estimated signal subspace and the angular innovation is induced and expanded into a Taylor series for linear approximation. The angular innovation is obtained by solving the approximated linear matrix equation in the least square sense. The good performance of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated by various computer simulations.

If the EOIR equipment mounted on an unmanned aircraft transmits images and receives commands through a data link, there may be delays in data transmission depending on the transmission path of the data and the conditions of the ground equipment or wireless network. This increases the possibility of initial target LOCK-ON failure due to the difference between the time when the received image is viewed and the time when the image is taken. Therefore, this paper proposed a way to use frame indexes to synchronize with images, and to increase the success of target tracking by adding frame indexes to commands from the ground station.

The accuracy and reliability of the target tracking is very critical issue in the design of automotive collision warning radar A significant problem in multi-target tracking (MTT) is the target-to-measurement data association If an incorrect measurement is associated with a target, the target could diverge the track and be prematurely terminated or cause other targets to also diverge the track. Most methods for target-to-measurement data association tend to coalesce neighboring targets Therefore, many algorithms have been developed to solve this data association problem. In this paper, a new multi-target data association method based on order statistics is described The new approaches. called the order statistics probabilistic data association (OSPDA) and the order statistics joint probabilistic data association (OSJPDA), are formulated using the association probabilities of the probabilistic data association (PDA) and the joint probabilistic data association (JPDA) filters, respectively Using the decision logic. an optimal or near optimal target-to-measurement data association is made A computer simulation of the proposed method in a heavy cluttered condition is given, including a comparison With the nearest-neighbor CNN). the PDA, and the JPDA filters, Simulation results show that the performances of the OSPDA filter and the OSJPDA filter are superior to those of the PDA filter and the JPDA filter in terms of tracking accuracy about 18% and 19%, respectively In addition, the proposed method is implemented using a developed digital signal processing (DSP) board which can be interfaced with the engine control unit (ECU) of car engine and with the d?xer through the controller area network (CAN)

Fig. 1에서 보는 바와 같이 수 MeV의 에너지를 가진 입사이온이 고체 시료표면과 충돌했을 때 여러 가지의 상호작용과 과정들이 일어난다. 입사 아온이 표적원자의 원자가전자나 내각전자와 상호작용을 하였을 때 원자를 여기시키거나 이온화시키게 되며 입사 이온이 표적 핵과 매우 가까이 접근했을 때 입사이온과 표적 핵사이에 쿨롱상호작용이나 핵 상호작용이 일어나게 된다. 이러한 여러가지 상호작용의 결과들로부터 분석하고자 하는 시료의 성분, 구조, 상호작용 과정에 대한 정보를 얻을 수 있다. 이러한 고에너지 이온선을 이용한 분석기술로는 Fig. 1에서 보는 바와 같이 후방산란법(BS : Backscattering Spectrometry), 전방산란법(FRS : Forward Recoil Spectrometry), 핵반응법(NRA : Nuclear Reaction Analysis), 양성자여기X선검출법(PIXE : Proton Induced X-ray Emission)등과 이러한 방법들과 같이 조합하여 사용하는 이온 채널링(ion channeling)등이 있다. 본 해설에서는 이러한 분석법중에서도 널리 사용되고 있는 후방산란법과 이온 채널링에 대하여 주로 기술하고자 한다.

Acoustic target strength (TS) is one of the most considerable design elements for survival capacities of the submarine. It needs to reduce acoustic TS that submarines are getting larger and larger, Alberich anechoic coatings are widely used as the representative method. In this paper, the finite element method (FEM) is used to analyze the reflection and transmission coefficients of Alberich anechoic coatings, which have periodic unit cells. The FEM results are compared with experimental results in the literature. Moreover, acoustic TS for the submarine is analyzed by using that result. Finally, it is shown that acoustic TS (Case 1: 10dB, Case 2: 6dB) are reduced due to the use of Alberich anechoic coatings.

This paper proposes a new approach on nonlinear maneuvering target tracking. In this paper, proposed algorithm is the Kalman filter based on the adaptive interactive multiple model using the concept of predicted impact point and utilize modified Kalman filter regarding the error between measurement position and predicted impact point. The unknown target acceleration is regarded as an additional process noise to the target model, and each sub-model is characterized in accordance with the valiance of the overall process noise which is obtained on the basis of each acceleration interval. To compensate the decreasing performance of Kalman filter in nonlinear maneuver, we construct optional algorithm to utilize proposed method or Kalman filter selectively. To effectively estimate the acceleration during the target maneuvering, the rapid increase of the noise scale is recognized as the acceleration to be used in maneuvering target's movement equation. And a few examples are presented to show suggested algorithm's executional potential.
