Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of signal processing, and in particular to a reference topology robust track association method for realizing system error decoupling. Background Art

[0002] The basic concept of system error decoupling is to reduce the interference of system error on track association as much as possible through some optimization processing algorithms, and improve the correctness of track association.

[0003] The basic concept of reference topology is to use a known target to be judged as the origin, draw a circle with a certain radius length, and form a reference track set for the adjacent track points falling within the circle. The pattern formed by all the reference track points in the set is called the reference topology of the target to be judged.

[0004] Regarding the reference topology track association problem for system error decoupling, on the one hand, there is a lack of accurate mathematical representation methods, making it difficult to effectively overcome the sensitivity problem of missing and false reporting of track information; on the other hand, the distance measurement between reference topologies mostly depends on subjective experience and lacks an objective quantification method, and it needs to be further improved in practicality in complex application scenarios.

[0005] Currently, researchers have proposed a variety of methods for robust track association estimation for system error decoupling, mainly based on the reference topology method, and proposed various forms of estimation algorithms such as reference topology sequences and topological probability matrices.

[0006] For example, in Example 1, in the journal paper "A Novel Fuzzy Pattern Recognition Data Association Method for Biased Sensor Data" by S Yue, W Yue, and X Shan in the International Conference on Information Fusion in 2006, the area around the target is discretely grid-divided, and track association estimation is performed through the target reference topology (RET) algorithm; this method lacks a mathematical representation method, the description process depends on subjective experience, and the calculation amount is too large in the case of dense targets, and the practicality is not strong.

[0007] For example, in Example 2, in the journal paper "Track Association Algorithm Based on Topological Sequence Method" in Acta Aeronautica et Astronautica Sinica in 2009, the concept of relative angle sorting is introduced to form a target topology sequence, and the similarity between the two sequences is measured for track association estimation; this method is relatively sensitive to false reporting and missing reporting phenomena, and the algorithm performance is greatly affected.

[0008] As in Example 3, in the journal paper "Track-to-track association using reference topology in the presence of sensor bias" by Xiongjie Du, Yue Wang, and Xiuming Shan in the Proceedings of Signal Processing, 10th International Conference on in 2010, a topological probability matrix is constructed from the probability distribution values of neighboring targets to measure the cross-correlation between the topological probability matrices of two targets for track association estimation. This method involves matrix calculations, has a high complexity, and is also sensitive to false alarms and missed detections, so the algorithm performance needs to be improved.

[0009] Therefore, the present invention proposes a robust track association method with reference topology for decoupling system errors to solve the deficiencies of the above-mentioned prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0010] The object of the present invention is to provide a robust track association method with reference topology for decoupling system errors, which solves the problem in the prior art that due to the system errors existing in the sensor itself, there are large deviations in obtaining the absolute position information of the target, and using this as an association criterion for robust track association estimation will further expand the errors, resulting in inaccurate optimization results.

[0013] Step 2: Analyze the influence of the robustness of the reference topology from the two aspects of range system error and angle system error respectively, and obtain the analysis result that the reference topology and the range system error are decoupled in polar coordinates.

[0014] Step 3: According to the analysis result of Step 2, perform reference topology distance estimation from the two aspects of translation system error and angle system error respectively based on the optimal sub-pattern assignment distance metric method OSPA.

[0015] Step 4: Based on the results of the reference topology distance estimation of the angle system error and the translation system error in Step 3, use the optimal linear assignment algorithm to calculate and obtain the final estimation result of the robust track association.
