Implementation of Real-Time Visual Tracking System for Airborne Targets
نویسندگان
چکیده
A real-time visual tracking system is presented for tracking airborne targets. The algorithm is based on intensity difference between background and the target in a gray-scale frame. As the background is uniform for videos of airborne targets, decision is made on contrast between tracking gate boundary and the target inside that rectangular gate. The algorithm is embedded on DSP Starter Kit (DSK) 6713 and a 586 embedded controller is used for servo control and processing. A personal computer (PC) provides the user interface for the system . The performance of the system is verified with different airborne targets from birds to helicopters and its reliability and constraints are presented.

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 ...
