Abstract :
The probability distribution function is used to describe the characteristics of the sensor. The system configuration of sensor data fusion is described. Five modules for the gathering and fusion of sensor data are represented. A linear Gaussian form measurement model of the sensor system is defined. Moreover, the authors define an optimality criterion for fusion of sensor data to get the optimal value from sensor measurements by maximizing the conditional probability.<>
