Data Fusion Methods for Netted Sensors with Limited Communication Bandwidth
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper considers measurement and track fusion (tracklet) methods for combining sensor data in a military netted sensors context involving a small number of surveillance sensors in which the available communications bandwidth is limited. It is concluded that tracklets methods have potential in netted sensor applications, in particular for sensors with high data rate and/or low measurement dimensionality.
