Kalman Filter Configurations for Multiple Radar Systems
Abstract
The purpose of this report is to examine several Kalman filter algorithms that can be used for state estimation with a multiple sensor system. These algorithms are described in detail and their results are compared with a suboptimum tracking algorithm which processes only multiple range measurements. A state estimate compression algorithm is also described. Various radar measurement transformation formulas are listed. Algorithms for a nonsynchronous data collection system are not examined in detail but possible approaches are suggested.
