A Model of a Range-Angle of Arrival Sensor System for an Active Protection System

Abstract

This report describes a performance model for a sensor system that processes range and angle of arrival information to locate a target. Problems associated with noncolocated sensing elements are discussed. The model provides the covariance structure of a location estimate for a specific geometry.
