Abstract

Performance of multiple target tracking algorithms in complex environments heavily relies on the success of track initiation and measurement-to-track association algorithms. Doppler velocity measurement is the major discriminant of clutter from the target of interest with relatively higher velocities. This work summarizes the analytical derivations and presents simulation results about track initiation and maintenance using Doppler velocity reports along with the 3D position measurements extracted by a phased array radar.
