Approach to Tracking a 3D-Target with 2D-Radar

摘要

Tracking 3D-targets with a 2D-radar is a significant and challenging problem. Motivated by the Range-Parameterized EKF (RPEKF) algorithm used in the problem of bearing-only tracking, we present a practical solution to solve this problem in this article, i.e., Height-Parameterized EKF (HPEKF). This method could reduce the fuzzy phenomenon in height information of the target. So we can track 3D-targets with a single 2D-radar in an effective way under some conditions.
