Abstract

In modern air battlefield, motion of airplane would have the case of highly maneuvering due to the necessary of the battle. This paper discusses the Jerk model of tracking highly maneuvering targets. According to the characteristic of dissimilar airborne sensors, an asynchronous target tracking fusion algorithm is presented using Jerk motion model and converted measurement Kalman filter. The improved performance of this algorithm is illustrated through simulation.
