Tracking with fused noncoincident measurements

If members of a suite of sensors from which fusion is to be carried out are not co-located, it is unreasonable to assume that they share a common resolution cell grid; this is generally ignored in the data fusion community. In this paper we explore the effects of such `noncoincidence', and we find that what at first seems to be a problem can in fact be exploited. The idea is that a target is known to be confined to an intersection of overlapping resolution cells, and this overlap is generally small.
