Abstract :
In this paper, a novel topology sequence calculation method is proposed and applied to track correlation algorithm. Based on attribute of topology sequence, tracks from different sensors will be same when there are no errors in sensor´s measurement. In order to recognize track from blurred measurement, hypothesis verification is used. Detailed experimental results on such correlation algorithm confirm that topology sequence is robust to range and angle error of sensor measurement, not only including random error, but also including system error.
