Clutter adaptive multiframe detection/tracking of random signature targets
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper develops the two-dimensional (2D) clutter adaptive, multiframe Bayes detector/tracker for targets with random signature. We model the background clutter and the target signature as samples of two independent, spatially correlated, 2D noncausal Gauss-Markov random elds (GMrfs). The target's motion is modeled by a 2D hidden Markov model (HMM). We study, through Monte Carlo simulations, the performance of the adaptive multiframe detector/tracker, and show that the performance of the adaptive tracker is very close to the performance of the tracker when the clutter model is perfectly known.

Effect of Curved Path Monopulse Radar Platform’s Grazing Angle on Height of Floated Targets Detection
Monopulse radarsare one of the most accurate tracking radars used to guide various platforms. Detection and tracking of surface targets with these radars are performed in order to point strike targets. Sea clutter presents challenges for detecting floated targets and in addition to affecting detection height, it can cause errors in monopulse angle finding. In this paper, the airborne monopulse ...
متن کاملThe Optimal 2D Multiframe Detector/Tracker
We detail in this paper the implementation of the optimal Bayes multiframe detector/tracker for rigid objects moving randomly in two-dimensional (2D) finite grids. We present 2D models for target signature and target motion that build an integrated framework for detection and tracking. We model the background clutter by 2D correlated noncausal Gauss-Markov fields of arbitrary order. By explorin...

In this paper we have presented a new procedure for sonar image target tracking using PHD filter besides K-means algorithm in high density clutter environment. We have presented K-means as data clustering technique in this paper to estimate the location of targets. Sonar images target tracking is a very good sample of high clutter environment. As can be seen, PHD filter because of its special f...
متن کاملSequential Monte Carlo Methods for Joint Detection and Tracking of Multiaspect Targets in Infrared Radar Images
We present in this paper a sequential Monte Carlo methodology for joint detection and tracking of a multiaspect target in image sequences. Unlike the traditional contact/association approach found in the literature, the proposed methodology enables integrated, multiframe target detection and tracking incorporating the statistical models for target aspect, target motion, and background clutter. ...
متن کاملManoeuvring target detection in over-the-horizon radar using adaptive clutter rejection and adaptive chirplet transform
In over-the-horizon radar (OTHR) systems, the signal-to-clutter ratio (SCR) used for moving target detection is very low. For slowly moving targets such as ships, the SCR is typically from 250 dB to 260 dB and their Doppler frequencies are close to that of the clutter. For manoeuvring targets, such as aircraft and missiles, the Doppler frequencies are time-varying when a long integration time i...
