Abstract :
The aim of this work is to develop a simple passive target tracking algorithm, when ownship is not able to maneuver due to some operational constraints. Pseudo linear estimator is modified in such a way that available target information such as range or course or speed can be used to find out the remaining target motion parameters. Monte-Carlo simulation is carried out and the results are presented for a typical scenario.
