Passive Sonar Multiple-Target Tracking with Nonlinear Doppler and Bearing Measurements Using Multiple Sensors

Zusammenfassung: | The major advantage of the passive multiple-target tracking is that the sonars do not emit signals and thus they can remain covert, which will reduce the risk of being attacked. However, the nonlinearity of the passive Doppler and bearing measurements, the range unobservability problem, and the measurement to target data association uncertainty make the passive multiple-target tracking problem challenging. To deal with the target to measurement data association uncertainty problem from multiple sensors, this paper proposed a batch recursive extended Rauch-Tung-Striebel smoother- (RTSS-) based probabilistic multiple hypothesis tracker (PMHT) algorithm, which can effectively handle a large number of passive measurements including clutters. The recursive extended RTSS which consists of a forward filter and a backward smoothing is used to deal with the nonlinear Doppler and bearing measurements. The target range unobservability problem is avoided due to using multiple passive sensors. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm works well in a passive multiple-target tracking system under dense clutter environment, and its computing cost is low. |
