Multi-Static Sonar Tracking Incorporating Environmentally-Adaptive SNR Estimates

This paper discusses an approach for improving tracking in a multi-static sonar field. Improved SNR estimates for contacts are used in a multiple target tracking algorithm. This paper presents comparative results for simulated and real data using a probabilistic data association (PDA) algorithm and...

Description
Summary:This paper discusses an approach for improving tracking in a multi-static sonar field. Improved SNR estimates for contacts are used in a multiple target tracking algorithm. This paper presents comparative results for simulated and real data using a probabilistic data association (PDA) algorithm and PDA with amplitude information (PDAFAI)
