Abstract

According to the characteristics of underwater target tracking, extended Kalman filter (EKF) algorithm was applied to underwater bearing-only and bearing-Doppler non-maneuverable target tracking problem. EKF is recursive Bayesian filter algorithm based on the linearization of the nonlinearities in the target state and the measurement equations. To ensure the observability in passive target tracking, we use single maneuvering observer. The simulation results show the suitability and effectiveness of the EKF algorithm to the single non-maneuverable target.
