Abstract :
The AIS system that will be brought into effect can improve shipping security for its more accurate information of target position and target identification. On applying AIS making use of the fusion of radar and AIS data should be attached important to. A method of fusion of radar and AIS data is proposed in this paper. The membership degree, on which the adaptive correlation-detecting function is constructed, is calculated by fuzzy C-mean clustering algorithm. It has been shown by simulations that reliable associations of track-to-track could be achieved.
