Abstract :
In this study, the performance of eleven different filters are compared against a simulated maneuvering target. To provide applicability to a wide range of problems, a diverse set of metrics are considered. To ensure rigorous testing, a combination of randomly generated and fixed extreme trajectories are used. The effects of maneuvers are extracted by processing the results conditionally on maneuver type, sojourn time and filter phase.
