Abstract :
There is far less literature on passive sensor systems for tracking intermittently emitting targets than for tracking continuously emitting ones. A methodology for evaluating these systems via simulation is proposed, and a prototype model, whose main purpose is to test hypotheses about the tracking system, is discussed
