Problems solved by technology

However, the traditional extended target tracking algorithms deal with the situation where the measurement noise covariance is known. In practice, when the measurement noise covariance is unknown, the tracking performance of the extended target will drop sharply

Abstract

The invention discloses an extended target tracking method based on variational Bayesian expectation maximization (VBEM) and mainly solves the problem that tracking performance of a target is weakened dramatically under the condition that measurement noise covariance is unknown in the conventional extended target tracking field. The extended target tracking method includes firstly predicting relevant parameters of Gaussian inverse gamma components in joint probability hypothesis density of a target state and the measurement noise covariance; updating the parameters of the Gaussian inverse gamma components; finally acquiring the extended target state and the number by construction and combination. It is proved by simulation experiment that multiple extended targets can be well tracked under the unknown number and the unknown measurement noise covariance, and the extended target tracking method is high in tracking accuracy and can be used for tracking aircrafts and submarine targets.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of information processing, and in particular relates to a target tracking method, which can be used to track multiple extended targets. Background technique [0002] In the traditional target tracking field, due to the limited resolution of the radar, the target is usually regarded as a point target, that is, each target can only produce one measurement at a time. In recent years, with the development of radar detection technology and the needs of practical applications, more targets are regarded as extended targets, that is, each target can generate multiple measurements at each moment. [0003] In the actual target tracking scene, the number of targets cannot be predicted in advance, so the proposal of random set theory greatly meets the needs of target tracking theory. Among many model assumptions on the target, especially the proposed extended target theory is closer to the needs of the current tracking...
