Choice of coordinate systems for multiple sensor fusion
Ted J. Broida · Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE · 1992
Fusion of kinematic measurements from spatially separated and/or independently moving sensors can be considerably simplified by judicious choice of coordinate systems. This paper discusses kinematics and issues associated with sensor-level (measurement) and central-level (fusion) coordinate systems. Compensation for sensor motion is briefly discussed and a coordinate system for angle-only tracking is discussed that avoids some of the difficulties associated with polar or spherical coordinates.
