Abstract :
The joint probabilistic data association filter is used for angle tracking of multiple moving targets. To improve the performance, in terms of data association, this filter uses power measurements, in addition to angle measurements. These measurements are provided by the MUSIC algorithm. The tracking performance of the algorithm is assessed by Monte Carlo simulations using different trajectories
