Abstract

A target tracking model and a technique for target tracking filtering based on sequential unscented Kalman filter are presented to improve target tracking performance of high resolution radar/infrared imaging sensor composite guidance system. Firstly, a measurement model for imaging sensor based of the centroid of the target is derived from images. Secondly, a measurement model for radar based of the centroid of the target is derived from traits of high resolution radar. Finally, the data fusion filtering framework for target tracking based on sequential unscented Kalman filter is presented. From the results of simulated experiments, average rate and target tracking accuracy of convergence for the technique developed are superior to those of other techniques. In conclusion, the target tracking model and filtering algorithm developed are proper for high resolution radar/infrared imagery sensor composite guidance system.
