On Tracking a Maneuvering Target in Clutter

IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems, 1984
A new technique for tracking a maneuvering target in a cluttered environment is developed. This approach does not rely on a statistical description of the maneuver as a random process. Instead, the state model for the target is changed when a maneuver is detected.

Auxiliary particle filters for tracking a maneuvering target

Proceedings of the 39th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (Cat. No.00CH37187), 2002
We consider the recursive state estimation of a highly maneuverable target. We apply optimal recursive Bayesian filters directly to the nonlinear target model. We present novel sequential simulation based algorithms developed explicitly for the maneuvering target tracking problem.

On the relay pursuit of a maneuvering target by a group of pursuers

IEEE Conference on Decision and Control and European Control Conference, 2011
This paper addresses the problem of pursuit of a maneuvering target by a group of pursuers distributed in the plane. This group pursuit problem is solved in a distributed way by employing a relay pursuit strategy, that is, a group pursuit scheme, such that at each instant of time, only one pursuer is assigned the task of capturing the maneuvering ...

Particle filters for maneuvering target tracking problem

Signal Processing, 2006
In this paper, we address the target tracking problem for the case of maneuvering target, including single target and multiple target tracking. We propose a suitable model to characterize the maneuvering acceleration and develop a state space model to describe the maneuvering target tracking problem.

Adaptive tracking of maneuvering targets

IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 1968
A means is suggested heuristically by which Kalman sequential estimation can be made adaptive to target maneuvers without the sacrifice of tracking accuracy in the nonmaneuvering portions of a trajectory. The adaptation requires backsliding in the gain schedule and reprocessing of the most recent several measurements.

Hierarchical Dirichlet processes for tracking maneuvering targets

2007 10th International Conference on Information Fusion, 2007
We consider the problem of state estimation for a dynamic system driven by unobserved, correlated inputs. We model these inputs via an uncertain set of temporally correlated dynamic models, where this uncertainty includes the number of modes, their associated statistics, and the rate of mode transitions.

Proportional Navigation with a Maneuvering Target

IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems, 1972
A qualitative analysis of the trajectories of a missile pursuing a maneuvering target according to the proportional navigation law is presented. Conditions for a missile to reach the target from any initial state are determined. The existence of a boundary for the required missile acceleration is demonstrated.

Passive tracking of a maneuvering target: an adaptive approach

IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, 1994
The problem of target tracking using passive sensors is examined. The target is assumed to execute maneuvers at times unknown to the observer. An adaptive algorithm, which takes into account such maneuvers, is derived using the multimodel partitioning approach.

Passive depth tracking of underwater maneuvering targets

IEEE Transactions on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 1985
As a parallel extension to the adaptive range tracking of underwater targets described by Moose and Dailey [1], this paper discusses the problem of tracking the depth of a maneuvering target using passive time-delay measurements. The target is free to maneuver in velocity and make random depth changes at times unknown to the observer.

A guidance law for visual tracking of a maneuvering target

2006 American Control Conference, 2006
This paper presents an adaptive disturbance rejection control architecture for a flying vehicle to track a maneuvering target using a monocular camera as a visual sensor. The derived guidance law is an acceleration command for the follower and enures range regulation with desired precision. Simulations illustrate the performance of the method.
