A radome mounted on the front of an aircraft can cause refraction errors for various reasons that occur during maneuver in seeking and tracking a target. This refraction error means that the microwave seeker is detecting apparent target. An Interactive Multiple Model (IMM) algorithm is applied to estimate radome slope mounted on an aircraft in 3D space. However, even though the parameter of uncertain system model such as radome slope can be estimated, the estimated performance can not be guaranteed when it exceeds the range of the predicted value. In this paper, we propose a method to update the predicted value by using the radome slope as the mode parameter of the IMM algorithm, and confirm the radome slope estimation performance of the proposed method.

In order to estimate the launch point of a high-speed vehicle, predicting the various characteristics of the vehicle's movement, such as drag and thrust, must be preceded by the estimation. To predict the various parameters regarding the vehicle's characteristics, we build the IMM filter specialized in predicting the parameters of the post-launch phase based on flight dynamics. Then we estimate the launch point of the high-speed vehicle using Inverse Dynamics. In addition, we assume the arbitrary error level of the radar for accuracy of the prediction. We organize multiple-dimensioned IMM structures, and figure out the optimal value of parameters by comparing the various IMM structures. After deriving the optimal value of parameters, we verify the launch point estimation error under certain error level.

The enhancement technique of noise signal using mixture HFM (Midden Filter Model) are proposed. Given the parameters of the clean signal and noise, noisy signal is modeled by a linear state-space model with Markov switching parameters. Estimation of state vector is required for estimating original signal. The estimation procedure is based on mixture interacting multiple model (MIMM) and the estimator of speech is given by the weighted sum of parallel Kalman filters operating interactively. Simulation results showed that the proposed method offers performance gains relative to the previous results with slightly increased complexity.

In this paper, an integrated design of fault detection, diagnosis and reconfigurable control tot multi-input and multi-output system is proposed. It is based on the interacting multiple model estimation algorithm, which is one of the most cost-effective adaptive estimation techniques for systems involving structural and/or parametric changes. This research focuses on the method to recover the performance of a system with failed actuators by switching plant models and controllers appropriately. The proposed scheme is applied to a fault tolerant control design for flight control system.

In this paper, we propose an interacting multiple model (IMM) method using intelligent tracking filter with fuzzy gain to reduce tracking errors for maneuvering targets. In the proposed filter, to exactly estimate for each sub-model, we propose the fuzzy gain based on the relation between the filter residual and its variation. To optimize each fuzzy system, we utilize the genetic algorithm (GA). Finally, the tracking performance of the proposed method is compared with those of the adaptive interacting multiple model (AIMM) method and input estimation (IE) method through computer simulations.

In a target tracking problem the radar glint noise has non-Gaussian heavy-tailed distribution and will seriously affect the target tracking performance. In most nonlinear situations an Extended Robust Kalman Filter(ERKF) can yield acceptable performance as long as the noises are white Gaussian. However, an Extended Robust $H_{\infty}$ Filter (ERHF) can yield acceptable performance when the noises are Laplacian. In this paper, we use the Interacting Multiple Model(IMM) estimator for the problem of target tracking with glint noise. In the IMM method, two filters(ERKF and ERHF) are used in parallel to estimate the state. Computer simulations of a real target tracking shows that hybrid filter used the IMM algorithm has superior performance than a single type filter.

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, a new filtering scheme for adaptive cruise control (ACC) system is presented. In the proposed scheme, the identification of the mode of the preceding vehicle is considered as a classification problem and it is done by a neural network classifier. The neural network classifier outputs a posterior probability of the mode of the preceding vehicle and the probability is directly used in the IMM framework. Finally, ten scenarios are made and the proposed NIMM is tested on them to show its validity.

This paper presents a new scheme for fault detection and isolation in the satellite system. The purpose of this paper is to develop a fault detection, isolation and diagnosis algorithm based on the bank of interacting multiple model (IMM) filter for both total and partial faults in a satellite attitude control system (ACS). In this paper, IMM are utilized for detection and diagnosis of anticipated actuator faults in a satellite ACS. Other fault detection, isolation (FDI) schemes using conventional IMM are compared with the proposed FDI scheme. The FDI procedure is developed in two stages. In the first stage, 11 EKFs actuator fault models are designed to detect wherever actuator faults occur. In the second stage of the FDI scheme, two filters are designed to identify the fault type which is either the total or partial fault. An important feature of the proposed FDI scheme can decrease fault isolation time and figure out not only fault detection and isolation but also fault type identification.

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 state 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, a DNA coding-based interacting multiple model (DNA coding-based W) method is proposed. The proposed method can overcome the mathematical limits of conventional methods by using the fuzzy logic based on DNA coding method. The tracking performance of the proposed method is compared with those of the adaptive IMM algorithm and the GA-based IMM method in computer simulations.
