This article proposes algorithms for the automatic initiation of the tracks of maneuvering targets in cluttered environments. These track initiation algorithms consist of IPDA-AI(Integrated Probabilistic Data Association-Amplitude Information) and MPDA(Most Probable Data Association) in an Interacting Multiple Model(IMM) configuration, and they are referred to as the IMM-IPDAF-AI and IMM-MPDA respectively. The IMM portion consists of several filters based on different dynamical models to handle target maneuvers. Each of the filters utilizes an IPDA-AI(or MPDA) algorithm to deal with the problem of track existence in the presence of clutter. Although the primary purpose of this study is to deal with the track initiation problem, the IMM-IPDAF-AI and IMM-MPDA can also be used for the maintenance of existing tracks and the termination of tracks for targets when they disappear. For illustrative purposes, simulation is used to compare the performance of the algorithms proposed to other track formation algorithms.

레이더를 이용한 항적 융합 알고리즘은 반드시 필요하며, 이를 통해서 높은 신뢰성을 확보할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 칼만필터 보다 성능이 좋다고 알려진 IMM(Interacting Multiple Model) 필터를 이용하여 다중 레이더 융합 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 분산형 융합 방식을 적용하였고, 부필터 3개, 주필터 1개를 이용하였다. 성능분석은 등속운동, 가속운동, 선회 등 항공기 기동을 묘사한 가상의 레이더 데이터를 이용하여 분석하였다. 성능분석 결과, 항공기가 기동하는 구간에서도 좋은 추적 성능을 보였다.

본 논문에서는 새로운 방식의 적응형 순항제어 필터링 방식을 제안한다. 제안한 알고리즘은 선행 차량의 모드를 추정하는 문제를 분류기의 문제로 보고 신경망 분류기를 이용하여 이를 수행한다. 신경망은 각 모드에 대한 사후 확률을 출력하며 이를 IMM과 결합하여 선행차량의 추적을 수행한다. 끝으로 10가지 시나리오에 대하여 신경망 분류기와 IMM을 결합한 NIMM (Neural Network IMM)을 적용하여 성능을 확인한다.

Barometers can provide height information steady but its accuracy becomes poor as the air data varies due to the vehicles's moving or time's elapsing. In order to keep the accuracy in spite of the air data changes, we propose a filter for the identification of baro-errors. The baro-errors mainly consist of bias and scale factor errors which gradually varies as the air data varies. With GPS height measurements, the scale factor and bias estimator is designed by applying the interacting multiple model (IMM) filtering technique to the baro-error random walk model. The resultant estimates are used to compensate current baro-measurement to supply accurate measurements steadily.

A vehicle cruise control algorithm using an Interacting Multiple Model (IMM)-based Multi-Target Tracking (MTT) method has been presented in this paper. The vehicle cruise control algorithm consists of three parts; track estimator using IMM-Probabilistic Data Association Filter (PDAF), a primary target vehicle determination algorithm and a single-target adaptive cruise control algorithm. Three motion models; uniform motion, lane-change motion and acceleration motion. have been adopted to distinguish large lateral motions from longitudinal motions. The models have been validated using simulated and experimental data. The improvement in the state estimation performance when using three models is verified in target tracking simulations. The performance and safety benefits of a multi-model-based MTT-ACC system is investigated via simulations using real driving radar sensor data. These simulations show system response that is more realistic and reflective of actual human driving behavior.

The tracking algorithm based on the interacting multiple model(IMM) requires a considerable number of sub-models for the various maneuvering targets in order to have a good performance. But it is not feasible to use the nm algorithm in the real system because of the computational burden. Therefore, we need an algorithm which requires less computing resources while maintaining a good performance. In this paper, we propose a fuzzy interacting multiple model algorithm(FIMMA) for the tracking of maneuvering targets, which uses a minimal number of sub-models by considering the maneuvering properties and adjusts the mode transition probabilities by using the mode probability as a fuzzy input. In order to verify the performance of FIMMA, the developed algorithm is applied to the tracking of i borne targets. Simulation results show that the FIMMA is very effective in the tracking of maneuvering targets.

국제민간항공기구, ICAO(International Civil Aviation Organization)에서는 CNS/ATM(Communication Navigation Surveillance/Air Traffic Management)을 21세기 표준항행시스템으로 채택하기로 결의하였다. 이에 따라 ICAO 회원국은 관련 기술개발 및 인프라 구축에 박차를 가하고 있다. CNS/ATM의 항공 감시분야에서는 ADS-B(Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast) 시스템과 더불어 Multilateration이 구축되고 있다. Multilateration은 레이더 설치 및 운용이 곤란하거나 항공기 감시 사각지대를 보완하기 위해 설치하는 시스템으로 TDOA(Time Difference Of Arrival)를 이용하여 레이더에 비해 매우 정확하다. 본 논문에서는 레이더 시스템에 널리 사용되는 IMM(Interacting Multiple Model) 필터를 Multilateration에 적용하여 보다 정확한 항공기 위치 획득을 가능하게 하였다. 성능분석 결과, IMM 필터를 적용한 Multilateration이 기존의 Multilateration에 비해 공항 인근에서는 38.37%, 공항 10마일 부근에서는 20.86% 정확한 것으로 분석되었다.

In this paper, it is shown that the dominant errors of baro-altimeters can be characterized by bias and scale factor errors. Also an optimal filter for estimating both bias and scale factor is derived based on the concept of model transition. The optimal filter is, however, not realizable because the model transition hypotheses increase exponentially. Therefore a realizable suboptimal filter using the interacting multiple model(IMM) technique is proposed. Computer simulation results show that the estimation errors of the proposed filter are smaller than those of the conventional least squares algorithm with a forgetting factor when both the bias and the scale factor are varying.

This paper describes the tracking filter performance for Naval Gun Ballistic Computation Unit(BCU). BCU needs tracing filter for gun firing. Using data of tracking sensor, BCU calculates the future position of Target and Gun order in the time of flight. In this paper, tracing filter is designed with interacting multiple model(IMM). The tracking algorithm based on the IMM requirers a considerable number of sub-model for the various maneuvering target in order to have a good performance. But, in the case of ship target, the maneuvering is restricted compared with the air target. Considering the maneuvering properties and adjusting the mode transition probabilities and the process noise of sub-model, We designed the IMM3 algorithm for Naval tracking filter with three sub-model.

In this paper, we develop an effective method for estimating and predicting interference power strength using the IMM(Interacting Multiple Model) algorithm. Based on the proposed interference prediction algorithm, we adjust transmission power of mobile terminals to maintain a certain level of target signal - to - interference- plus -noise- ratio ( SINR ) at the base station. Results of numerical experiments are presented to show a performance profile of the proposed algorithm.
