  • Abstract
    This paper describes an approach to the detection of turns in a radar tracking system and discusses some of the difficulties encountered in a multiradar system when using more conventional manoeuvre detectors with ¿-ß or Kalman filter trackers. Typical aircraft tracks are presented to illustrate the improvements possible using the approach described.
