Presented are closed-form expressions of the three-state exponentially correlated acceleration (ECA) target-tracking filter. The steady-state solution is derived based on Vaughan's approach for the case that he measurements of target position and velocity are available at discrete point in time. The solution for ECA tracking filter using only position measurements and the solution for the constant acceleration (CA) tracking filter are obtained as a special case of the presented results.

In this letter, we propose a moving-target tracking algorithm based on a particle filter that uses the time difference of arrival (TDOA)/frequency difference of arrival (FDOA) measurements acquired by distributed sensors. It is shown that the performance of the proposed algorithm, based on the particle filter, outperforms the one based on the extended Kalman filter. The use of both the TDOA and FDOA measurements is shown to be effective in the moving-target tracking. It is proven that the particle filter deals with the nonlinear nature of the movingtarget tracking problem successfully.

In this paper, we propose and assess the performance of "H infinity filter ($H_{\infty}$, HIF)" and "cost reference particle filter (CRPF)" in the problem of tracking a target based on the measurements of the range and the bearing of the target. HIF and CRPF have the common advantageous feature that we do not need to know the noise statistics of the problem in their applications. The performance of the extended Kalman filter (EKF) is also compared with that of the proposed filters, but the noise information is perfectly known for the applications of the EKF. Simulation results show that CRPF outperforms HIF, and is more robust because the tracking of HIF diverges sometimes, particularly when the target track is highly nonlinear. Interestingly, when the tracking of HIF diverges, the tracking of the EKF also tends to deviate significantly from the true track for the same target track. Therefore, CRPF is very effective and appropriate approach to the problems of highly nonlinear model, especially when the noise statistics are unknown. Nonetheless, HIF also can be applied to the problem of timevarying state estimation as the EKF, particularly for the case when the noise statistcs are unknown. This paper provides a good example of how to apply CRPF and HIF to the estimation of dynamically varying and nonlinearly modeled states with unknown noise statistics.

다중표적 추적시스템은 여러 개의 표적물을 동시에 추적한다. 표적물의 추적에는 일반적으로 칼만필터를 사용하게 된다. 칼만필터는 최적의 특성을 지니고 있지만, 많은 계산량을 요구하는 단점이 있다. 따라서 여러 개의 표적물을 동시에 추적하는 다중표적 추적시스템의 실시간 구현을 위하여 칼만필터 대신에 계산량이 적은 다른 예측기를 사용하기도 한다. 본 논문에서는 계산량을 줄이기 위하여 칼만필터에서 사용하는 시스템의 모델을 줄이는 방법을 사용하여 보았다. 표적물의 운동을 등속운동으로 가정하여 사용된 모델은 표적물의 추적능력을 지니면서도 그 계산량을 줄일 수 있었다. 간단한 시뮬레이션과 실제의 영상정보에 적용한 결과는 등속운동을 가정한 칼만필터가 원래의 좋은 특성을 유지하면서 계산량을 줄일 수 있어 다중표적 추적시스템에 유리하게 사용될 수 있음을 보여주었다.

본 논문에서는 직교 좌표계에서 추적필터가 설계될 때, 표적의 거리와 방위에 대한 관측오차 공분산의 변화를 고려하기 위하여 정상상태 칼만필터의 해석적 해를 이용하는 IMM 추적기를 설계하였다. 제안된 정상상태 칼만필터 기반 IMM 추적기의 성능분석 및 검증을 위하여 거리의 변화가 작은 표적과 거리의 변화가 큰 표적에 대하여 각각 100회의 Monte Carlo 시뮬레이션을 수행하고, 고정이득 및 칼만필터 기반의 IMM 추적기와 RMS 오차분석을 통하여 비교하였다. 모의실험 결과로부터 제안된 방법이 칼만필터 기반 IMM 추적필터에 비하여 연산량을 크게 감소시킬 수 있으며, 유사한 추적성능을 제공할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The Probability Hypothesis Density (PHD) filter is a suboptimal approximation and tractable alternative to the multi-target Bayesian filter based on random finite sets. However, the PHD filter fails to track newborn targets when the target birth intensity is unknown prior to tracking. In this paper, a dual detection-guided newborn target intensity PHD algorithm is developed to solve the problem, where two schemes, namely, a newborn target intensity estimation scheme and improved measurement-driven scheme, are proposed. First, the newborn target intensity estimation scheme, consisting of the Dirichlet distribution with the negative exponent parameter and target velocity feature, is used to recursively estimate the target birth intensity. Then, an improved measurement-driven scheme is introduced to reduce the errors of the estimated number of targets and computational load. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can achieve good performance in terms of target states, target number and computational load when the newborn target intensity is not predefined in multi-target tracking systems.

This paper proposes a linear distributed target tracking filter for multiple unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs) sharing their passive sensor measurements through communication channels. Different from the conventional nonlinear filtering schemes, the distributed passive target tracking problem is newly formulated within the framework of a linear robust state estimation theory incorporated with a linear uncertain measurement equation including the coordinate transform uncertainty. To effectively cope with the performance degradation due to the coordinate transform uncertainty, a linear consistent robust Kalman filter(CRKF) theory is devised and applied for designing a distributed passive target tracking filter. Through the simulations for typical UAV surveillance mission, the superior performance of the proposed method over the existing schemes of distributed passive target tracking are demonstrated.

This paper proposes the design methodology of genetic algorithm (GA)-based fuzzy Kalman filter for tracking the maneuvering target. The performance of the standard Kalman Filter (SKF) has been degraded because mismatches between the modeled target dynamics and the actual target dynamics. To solve this problem, we use the method to estimate the increment of acceleration by a fuzzy system using the relation between maneuver filter residual and non-maneuvering one. To optimize the fuzzy system, a genetic algorithm (GA) is utilized and this is then tuned by the fuzzy logic correction. Finally, the tracking performance of the proposed method has been compared with those of the input estimation (IE) technique and the intelligent input estimation (IIE) through computer simulations.
