Sequential Monte Carlo tracking schemes for maneuvering targets with passive ranging

Conference item

In this article we consider tracking a single maneuvering target in scenarios where range information is not available, or is denied. This tracking problem is usually referred to as passive ranging, or bearings-only tracking. Tracking any single maneuvering target naturally admits a jump Markov system, in which a collection of candidate dynamical systems is proposed to model various classes of motion, each of which is assumed to be executed by the target according to a Markov law. Standard te...
