In this paper, a new realtime algorithm called the RTPBTD-HPDAF (Recursive Temporal Profile Base Target Detection with Highest Probability Data Association Filter) is presented for tracking fast moving small targets with IIR (Imaging Infrared) sensor systems. Spatial filter algorithms are mainly used for target in IIR sensor system detection and tracking however they often generate high density clutter due to various shapes of cloud. The TPBTD (Temporal Profile Base Target Detection) algorithm based on the analysis of temporal behavior of individual pixels is known to have good performance for detection and tracking of fast moving target with suppressing clutter. However it is not suitable to detect stationary and abruptly maneuvering targets. Moreover its computational load may not be negligible. The PTPBTD-HPDAF algorithm proposed in this paper for real-time target detection and tracking is shown to be computationally cheap while it has benefit of tracking targets with abrupt maneuvers. The performance of the proposed RTPBTD-HPDAF algorithm is tested and compared with the spatial filter with HPDAF algorithm for run-time and track initiation at real IIR video.

Inverse synthetic aperture radar(ISAR) images represent two-dimensional(2-D) spatial distribution of electromagnetic scattering phenomenology against a target. Hence, they are usually used in the areas of automatic target recognition (ATR) or non-cooperative target recognition(NCTR), identifying a target using radar in a long distance. This paper makes use of Korea Miniature Synthetic Aperture Radar(KOMSAR) to generate ISAR images of a real and maneuvering aircraft. The data obtained from KOMSAR are processed to eliminate phase errors due to motion of a target, with the use of entropy-based ISAR autofocusing technique. Results show that we can successfully obtain ISAR images of a real aircraft, and the success of experiments implies that a significant step toward ATR using radar has been established.

A nonlinear robust guidance law is designed for missiles against a maneuvering target by incorporating sliding-mode and optimal control theories based on the state dependent Riccati equation (SDRE) to achieve robustness against target accelerations. The guidance law is derived based on three-dimensional nonlinear engagement kinematics and its robustness against disturbances is proved by the second method of Lyapunov. A new switching surface is considered in the sliding-mode control design. The proposed guidance law requires the maximum value of the target maneuver, and therefore opposed to the conventional augmented proportional navigation guidance (APNG) law, complete information about the target maneuver is not necessary, and hence it is simple to implement in practical applications. Considering different types of target maneuvers, several scenario simulations are performed. Simulation results confirm that the proposed guidance law has much better robustness, faster convergence, and smaller final time and control effort in comparison to the sliding-mode guidance (SMG) and APNG laws.

A guidance loop of the missile system which uses a command to line of sight(CLOS) guidance law is designed based on LQG theory. In the environment of the severe tracking system noise, the system requires small aerodynamic control fin travel and small miss distance simultaneously. Results from a sample airframe shows good performance against a randomly maneuvering target.

This paper proposes a novel guidance law based on the block backstepping sliding mode control and extended state observer (ESO), which also takes into account the autopilot dynamic characteristics of the near space interceptor (NSI), and the impact angle constraint of attacking the maneuvering target. Based on the backstepping control approach, the target maneuvers and the parameter uncertainties of the autopilot are regarded as disturbances of the outer loop and inner loop, respectively. Then, the ESO is constructed to estimate the target acceleration and the inner loop disturbance, and the block backstepping sliding model guidance law is employed, based on the estimated disturbance value. Furthermore, in order to avoid the "explosion of complexity" problem, first-order low-pass filters are also introduced, to obtain differentiations of the virtual control variables. The stability of the closed-loop guidance system is also proven, based on the Lyapunov theory. Finally, simulation results demonstrate that the proposed guidance law can not only overcome the influence of the autopilot dynamic delay and target maneuvers, but also obtain a small miss distance.

A conventional Closest Point of Approach (CPA) analysis allows a non-maneuvering moving source that is radiating a constant frequency tone to be located using doppler shifted frequency measurements obtained by a stationary receiver. The original frequency, relative speed of the target, time at the CPA, and range from the CPA to the sensor are estimated by the conventional CPA. However, this paper proposes a new CPA analysis that allows the motion parameters of a target to be estimated using the bearing and frequency measurements obtained by a moving receiver that has a constant velocity. The validity of the proposed estimation scheme is confirmed through a performance analysis and simulation study.

Recently, ship collision accidents account for $20\%\∼30\%$ of domestic marine accidents, also have increased continually. In this paper, therefore we propose the development of Ship Collision Avoidance Support program for decreasing ship collision accidents. This program has been developed on the basis of CCAS-Model. A CCAS-Model has ship's maneuvering performance and has studied for the propose of supporting to avoid ship collision in close quarters. Besides, the program will effectively support maneuvering for collision avoidance through displaying the feasible area and the method of collision avoidance using own ship's turning characteristic about action of target ship's keeping course and velocity in various encounter.

In this paper, we describe the implementation methods and algorithms for the various technologies and devices required for the construction of the engagement HILS(Hardware In the Loop Simulation) in the limited space to simulate the high-speed maneuvering encounter situation of the weapon system in 3-dimensional real world space. Through this research, we have been able to suggest ways to analyze the major design elements of future electronic warfare equipment through experiments simulating actual engagements between various high-speed maneuvering weapons systems and electronic warfare devices in the future battlefield. It was confirmed that the M&S technology could be used to eliminate technical risks, reduce development cost, and shorten development time in the future real system development. The results of this study can be a great assist not only for the field of electronic warfare system research and development, but also for the research & implementation on HILS of various engaging class weapons systems.

Over last decade Multiple Target Tracking (MTT) has been the subject of numerous presentations and conferences [1979-1900]. Various approaches have been proposed to solve the problem. Representative works in the problem are Nearest Neighbor (NN) method based on non-probabilistic data association (DA), Multiple Hypothesis Test (MHT) and Joint Probabilistic Data Association (JPDA) as the probabilistic approaches. These techniques have their own advantages and limitations in computational requirements and in the tracking performances. In this paper, the three promising algorithms based on the NN standard filter, MHT and JPDA methods are presented and their performances against simulated multiple maneuvering targets are compared through numerical simulations.
