Passive tracking and size estimation of volume target based on acoustic vector intensity
Xun Liu · 声学学报(英文版) · 2001
The special sections of volume target are observed with acoustic vector intensity according to the difference among their radiated-noise characteristics, then three sections are tracked with Kalman filtering, and target size is estimated. Simulation results indicate that in ideal condition three sections of a ship can be tracked and ship's size can be estimated even though one of three sections can not be observed.
