본 논문은 대화형 방송환경에서 부가서비스를 제공받기 위해서 탐다운(Top-Down)메뉴 검색을 하는 것이 아니라, 방송영상의 화면 내부에서 부가서비스가 제공되길 원하는 객체를 선택했을 때 선택한 객체에 대한 부가서비스를 제공하는 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 이를 위해서는 실시간으로 방송되고 있는 동영상과 객체정보(위치, 크기, 모양)의 동기를 맞추는 기술과 동영상 내부의 객체 추적 기술이 필수적이다. 동영상과 객체정보의 동기를 맞추는 기술은 마이크로소프트사의 다이렉트쇼(DirectShow)를 이용하였으며, 객체를 추적하기 위한 방법은 객체를 크게 사람과 사물로 나누어, 사람의 얼굴은 모델을 만들어 추적하는 모델 기반 얼굴 추적 방법(Model-based face tracking)을 사용하고 나머지 사물에 대해서는 객체의 영역을 지정하여 영역을 추적하는 움직임 기반 추적 방법(Motion-based Tracking)을 적용하였다. 또한 움직임 기반 추적을 할 수 있도록 하고 모델 기반 추적 방법을 적용하여 움직임이 큰 객체도 검색 영역 확장 없이 정확한 추적을 할 수 있도록 하고 모델 기반 추적 방법에는 타원 모델과 색상 모델을 결합한 얼굴 모델을 적용하여 얼굴이 회전하여도 정확한 추적을 할 수 있도록 개선하였다.

The tracking antenna system must be always pointed to a satellite for data link among moving vehicles. Especially, for an antenna mounted on a moving vehicle, it needs the stabilized the antenna system. So, software and hardware, signal processing of motion detection sensors, real-time processing of vehicle dynamics, trajectory estimation of satellite, antenna servo mechanism, and tracking algorithm, are unified in the antenna system. The purpose of this paper is to design the embedded tracking antenna control system for satellite communication. The embedded OS(Operating System) based stabilization and tracking algorithm was implemented. The performance of the designed embedded control system was verified by the real satellite communication test.

In this paper, we propose a vision-based object detection and tracking system using online learning. The proposed system adopts a feature point-based method for tracking a series of inter-frame movement of a newly detected object, to estimate rapidly and toughness. At the same time, it trains the detector for the object being tracked online. Temporarily using the result of the failure detector to the object, it initializes the tracker back tracks to enable the robust tracking. In particular, it reduced the processing time by improving the method of updating the appearance models of the objects to increase the tracking performance of the system. Using a data set obtained in a variety of settings, we evaluate the performance of the proposed system in terms of processing time.

This paper presents the development of development of stabilization and tracking algorithms for a shipboard satellite antenna system. In order to stabilize the satellite antenna system designed in the previous work, a model for each control axis is derived and its parameters are estimated using a genetic algorithm, and the state feedback controller is designed based on the linearized model. Then a tracking algorithm is derived to overcome some drawbacks of the step tracking. The proposed algorithm searches for the best position using gradient-based formulae and signal intensities measured according to a search pattern. The effectiveness of both the stabilization and tracking algorithms is demonstrated through experiment using real-world data.

A telemetry ground station has a highly directional, parabolic tracking antenna to receive a weak telemetry signal from a target at a distance. The tracking antenna with narrow beam-width normally uses the auto-track method for the target tracking. This paper presents several issues in the auto-track method and introduces a new tracking method using Self-Slaving technique. Self-Slaving means that the tracking antenna is slaved to not data measured by RADAR but GPS/INS informations received by the telemetry system for pointing. The Self-Slaving method shows good performance in comparison with auto-track method.

The most important problem in target tracking can be said to be modeling the tracking system correctly. Although the simple linear dynamic equation for this model has used until now, the satisfactory performance could not be obtained owing to uncertainties of the real systems in the case of designing the filters baged on the dynamic equations. In this paper, we propose the extended robust Kalman filter (ERKF) which can be applied to the real target tracking system with the parameter uncertainties. A nonlinear dynamic equation with parameter uncertainties is used to express the uncertain system model mathematically, and a measurement equation is represented by a nonlinear equation to show data from the radar in a Cartesian coordinate frame. To solve the robust nonlinear filtering problem, we derive the extended robust Kalman filter equation using the Krein space approach and sum quadratic constraint. We show the proposed filter has better performance than the existing extended Kalman filter (EKF) via 3-dimensional target tracking example.

The multiple targets tracking problem has been one of main issues in the radar applications area in the last decade. Besides the standard Kalman filtering, various methods including the variable dimension filter, input estimation filter, interacting multiple model (IMM) filter, federated variable dimension filter with input estimation, probable data association (PDA) filter etc. have been proposed to address the tracking and sensor fusion issues. In this paper, two existing tracking algorithms, i.e. the IMMPDA filter and the variable dimension filter with input estimation (VDIE), are combined for the purpose of improving the tracking performance of maneuvering targets in clutter. To evaluate the tracking performance of the proposed algorithm, three typical maneuvering patterns i.e. Waver, Pop-Up, and High-Diver motions, are defined and are applied to the modified IMMPDA filter considered as well as the standard IMM filter. The smaller RMS tracking errors, in position and velocity, of the modified IMMPDA filter than the standard IMM filter are demonstrated through computer simulations.

In this paper, the limited error tracking problem is investigated for distributed leader-following wireless sensor networks (LFWSNs), where all sensors share data by the local communications, follower sensors are influenced by leader sensors directly or indirectly, but not vice versa, all sensor nodes track a reference state that is determined by the states of all leader sensors, and tracking errors are limited. In a LFWSN, the communicating graph is mainly expressed by some complete subgraphs; if we fix subgraphs that are composed of all leaders while all nodes in complete subgraphs of followers run on the sleeping-awaking method, then the fixed leaders and varying followers topology is obtained, and the switching topology is expressed by a Markov chain. It is supposed that the measurements of all sensors are corrupted by additive noises. Accordingly, the limited error tracking protocol is proposed. Based on the theory of asymptotic boundedness in mean square, it is shown that LFWSN keeps the limited error tracking under the designed protocol.

In this paper, we propose the novel tracking method which uses the weighted discriminative correlation filter (DCF). We also propose the PSPR instead of conventional PSR as tracker performance evaluation method. The proposed tracking method uses multiple DCF to estimates the target position. In addition, our proposed method reflects more weights on the correlation response of the tracker which is expected to have more performance using PSPR. While existing multi-DCF-based tracker calculates the final correlation response by directly summing correlation responses from each tracker, the proposed method acquires the final correlation response by weighted combining of correlation responses from the selected trackers robust to given environment. Accordingly, the proposed method can provide high performance tracking in various and complex background compared to multi-DCF based tracker. Through a series of tracking experiments for various video data, the presented method showed better performance than a single feature-based tracker and also than a multi-DCF based tracker.

This paper presents a multiple target tracking system using Normalized Rayleigh likelihood of amplitude information of target. Although many studies of Radar systems using amplitude information have been studied, they are focused on single target tracking. This paper proposes the multiple target tracking using amplitude information as well as kinematic information from Radar sensor. The amplitude information are applied in generating the association probability of joint probabilistic data association(JPDA) algorithm through the normalized Rayleigh likelihood. It is verified that the proposed system can enhance the track maintenance and tracking accuracy, especially, in the target crossing case.
