The paper addresses the problem of estimating the launch and impact points of a ballistic target from radar measurements. The problem has been faced under different hypotheses on the available prior knowledge. The proposed approach combines a nonlinear batch estimator with a recursive MM (multiple model) particle filter in order to attain the estimation goal. Extensive simulations assess the achievable estimation performance.
