Search method for detection and tracking of targets using multiple angle- only sensors

摘要

A method of detection and tracking of targets using multiple angle- only sensors is disclosed. The method is computationally efficient and is capable of detecting and tracking multiple targets in true three dimensional space. The method comprises distributing a set of modules in space and associating those modules with bearing lines from each sensor to each target. Through repetitive iterative associations between modules and bearing lines, the modules converge on the targets present.
