Angle Estimation Error Reduction Method Using Weighted IMM

Abstract

This paper proposes a new approach to reduce the target estimation error of the measurement angle, especially applied to the medium and long range surveillance radar. If the target has no maneuver and no change in heading direction for a certain time interval, the predicted angle of interacting multiple model(IMM) from the previous track information can be used to reduce the angle estimation error. The proposed method is simulated in 2 scenarios, a scenario with a non-maneuvering target and a scenario with a maneuvering target. The result shows that the new fusion solution(weighted IMM) with the predicted azimuth and the measured azimuth is worked properly in the two scenarios.

“…In addition, the type of pad used in the calculation is CELdek7090 (Munters, Sweden), with 60 L per minute of water sprayed along the cross-sectional area of the upper part of the pad [31]. If the cooling efficiency of the pads differs depending on the outside air conditions, but on average, the cooling efficiency was 15 to 40% depending on the pad thickness [32]. The cooling efficiency of the cooling pad on the energy model was implemented using the "Evaporative Cooler: Direct: CelDekPad" class.…”
