Generalized asynchronous track fusion with Feedback
Ali T. Alouani, John Edward Gray · Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE · 2005
This paper solves a general track fusion problem with feedback when the sensors used are asynchronous, communication delays exist between sensor platforms and track fusion center, and tracks may arrive out- of-sequence. For the proposed linear fusion rule, the solution is shown to be optimal in the minimum mean square sense. The batch processing of incoming tracks provides an elegant solution for the out-of-sequence and latent tracks without special processing of such data.
