Abstract

The tracking of maneuvering targets in radar networking scenarios is studied in this paper. For the interacting multiple model algorithm and the expected-mode augmentation algorithm, the fixed base model set leads to a mismatch between the model set and the target motion mode, which causes the reduction on tracking accuracy. An adaptive grid-expected-mode augmentation variable structure multiple model algorithm is proposed. The adaptive grid algorithm based on the turning model is extended to the two-dimensional pattern space to realize the self-adaptation of the model set. Furthermore, combining with the unscented information filtering, and by interacting the measurement information of neighboring radars and iterating information matrix with consistency strategy, a distributed target tracking algorithm based on the posterior information of the information matrix is proposed. For the problem of filtering divergence while target is leaving radar surveillance area, a k-coverage algorithm based on particle swarm optimization is applied to plan the radar motion trajectory for achieving filtering convergence.
