A New Method for Target Motion Analysis

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper proposes a new method for a targets trajectory, assumed to be linear and uniform, based on the observation of its speed and bearings. After introducing the new method based on assumed model, the paper analyzes the relative error of range estimation caused by speed and bearings estimations relative error; The results of target motion analysis (TMA) is optimized by linearizing the model and using kalman filter. Pond test shows that relative error of range estimation calculated by this method is less than 10-1.
