Abstract :
Due to limited sensing range for sensor nodes, moving object tracking has to be realized by relaying from one node to the other in a cluster. By taking object tracking in a fixed cluster as a Markov jump nonlinear system, the interacting multiple sensor unscented Kalman filter(IMSUKF) algorithm is designed to deal with distributed tracking. The proposed method can be divided into two parts: one-step unscented Kalman filter for object tracking and the fusion of the information provided by all the nodes. Finally, simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
