On-platform radar and optical track fusion
Matthew Sorell, M.L. Krieg, Clayton V. Stewart · 2002
The Australian Defence Science and Technology Organisation is developing a single-platform sensor fusion test-bed based around an experimental X-band generic pulse Doppler radar. Initial research will examine real-time fusion of amplitude monopulse radar azimuth and elevation and video position estimates and the tracking ability of the combined sensor system. The addition of further signal processing and sensors will allow experimental verification of a variety of sensor fusion and management algorithms. Examples of preliminary data are shown and the continuing development of the test-bed and its applications are discussed.>
