Abstract :
In this article, a survey of techniques for tracking multiple targets in distributed sensor networks is provided and introduce some recent developments. The single target tracking in distributed sensor networks is reviewed. The tracking and resource management issues can be readily extended to MTT. The MTT problem is also briefly reviewed and describe the traditional approaches in centralized systems. Then focus on MTT in resource-constrained sensor networks and present two distinct example methods demonstrating how limited resources can be utilized in MTT applications. Finally, the most important remaining problems are discussed and suggest future directions
