Tracking Algorithm Design and Comparison of High Speed High Maneuvering Target

Abstract

Aiming at the problem that the traditional tracking method cannot track high speed high maneuvering target effectively, one modified fixed structure multiple model algorithm (M-FSMM) and one modified variable structure multiple model (M-VSMM) algorithm were proposed. The Constant Velocity (CV) model, Current Statistical (CS) and Modified Coordinate Turn (MCT) model were adopted in the M-FSMM algorithm, by means of Connected Graph (CG) thinking, the model connected graph was made up by models that can describe possible motion, the connected relation was set up and model self-adapting was designed to carry out the variable structure tracking that can quickly jump between models. Monte Carlo simulation results show that the two methods can track high speed high maneuvering target effectively, the computational quantum of M-FVMM algorithm is larger but the tracking accuracy and stability are better than the M-FSMM algorithm. They can be used to track near space hypersonic targets.
