Radar-ESM Correlation Decision Procedure.

Abstract

The problem considered is how to correlate an ESM signal with one or none of m possible radar tracks when there are an unequal number of measurements associated with each radar track. It is suggested that the decision should be based on the probabilities of obtaining at least the measured squared-errors between the ESM measurements and each of the radar tracks. Using these probabilities, one of five possible decisions is made by comparing the largest probability to various thresholds and to the second largest probability. The accuracy of the method was investigated via computer simulations. (Author)
