Evaluation of IPDA type filters with a low elevation sea-surface target tracking
Xuezhi Wang, Darko Mušicki · 2003
The lnfegrared Probabilistic Dora Association (IPDA) rypefilrersprovide esrimares of rhe underlying rargerpmb- abiliry of erisrence /percPivabi/iry/visibiliry as well m rrack srore maintenance. These quamilies are convenienrly used as rrack qmiiry measures and can be used for rrack confirmarion and rer- minalion. In rhis work jvefilrers of fhis rype are investigated and evalimred in a low eloarion seo-surface rarger rracking scenario. The sea-surface induced mulriparh fading reduces rhe delecrion pmbabiliry of rhe rarger at certain ranges which can lead ro track loss. In rhis paper we r~oluare rhe IPDA rypefilrers in such sce- nario.
