Abstract :
In this paper we propose resource management and simulation of the multifunction array radar (MFAR). This air defence radar can cope with two kinds of targets: aircrafts and missiles. We choose optimum search coverage and so decrease time of one scan notably. This radar can track up to 100 targets simultaneously. For estimation and prediction of the target state we use interacting multiple model (IMM) algorithm and compare the performance of this algorithm with second order Kalman filter for several trajectories.
