  • Abstract
    A heterogeneous Markov chain (MC) model, instead of the homogeneous MC model, is proposed in this paper to describe target existence variable for Bayesian track-before-detect. The proposed model is more consistent with the transitions of target existence variable, which leads to the improvement of the performance of detection and tracking.
