Filtering Performance of Digital Alternate Array on Target Tracking

Article Preview

Abstract:

For target tracking of agile digital array, we propose a novel model called alternate array. The model means that total array is divided into vertical subarray at the present moment, and vertical subarray is transformed into horizontal subarray at the next moment, then the subarray comes to the first subarray divisions, and so on. Alternate array gives rise to differences of statistical characters of measurement error. Filtering performance is influenced by the feature of measurement data. In the paper, we come up with a new method based on Kalman filter (KF) to solve the difficulty. The new method merges pre-processing and data fusion thought together. Simulation results demonstrate the validity of the proposed algorithm.
