This study addresses distributed state estimation of jump Markovian systems and its application to tracking of a manoeuvring target by means of a network of heterogeneous sensors and communication nodes. Two novel consensus‐based multiple‐model filters are presented. Simulation experiments in a tracking case study, involving a strongly manoeuvring target and a sensor network characterised by weak connectivity, demonstrate the superiority of the proposed distributed multiple‐mode filters with respect to existing solutions.
