Abstract :
A recently proposed algorithm is generalised for tracking both azimuth and elevation angles of moving targets using a sensor array. An error-correction procedure is incorporated into the algorithm to reduce error propagations due to the use of recursive approximations in updating target angle estimates. A computer simulation example is provided for illustration.
