An Engineering Approach for Observer Trajectory Optimization in Passive Target Tracking System

Abstract:

In passive target tracking system, the observer trajectories have an important effect on the accuracy of target localization and tracking. This paper addressed an engineering approach to optimize the trajectory altitude of observer platform for airborne ESM surveillance system. The method proposed is based on Monte-Carlo run, which avoid complicated theoretical deduction and make the observer path easy-to-practice. By the analysis, the general principle of observer trajectory altitude optimization can be obtained. Within the range of allowed flying altitudes for observer, the measurements of elevation should be maintain or close to 45 degrees as much as possible.
