Abstract

This invention belongs to the field of motion control and navigation technology, specifically relating to a dynamic target following method, system, and apparatus using an adaptive Kalman filter. It includes the following steps: S1: Constructing a conventional Kalman filter. S2: Setting the parameter adjustment thresholds for the adaptive Kalman filter, including signal quality indicators and motion state indicators. S3: Designing an adaptive Kalman filter that supports adaptive adjustment of the covariance matrix Q of the prediction noise in conjunction with the parameter adjustment thresholds. k The covariance matrix N of the measurement noise k S4: Real-time acquisition of the relative angle and distance of the target at the current moment. S5: Correction of the detection results using an adaptive Kalman filter. S6: Adjustment of the speed and rotation angle of the following platform based on the correction results to achieve real-time tracking of the target. This invention solves the problem that traditional Kalman filter-based tracking systems are prone to target loss and have poor robustness under brief abnormal conditions.
