Abstract :
The authors present an adaptive Kalman filtering technique to estimate and remove sensor biases and sensor frame tilt errors in multisensor systems. The approach first estimates and removes the sensor biases. The tilt errors are then estimated and removed using bias-free measurements. This technique is tested using simulated target tracks
