Abstract

This paper presents a set of novel and efficient algorithms for fusion of emitters from multiple sensors, where a signal from one sensor system could either be a bearing line or a fix. This comprehensive solution includes fusion algorithms for multiple fixes, multiple bearing lines, and fix with bearing. Testing using a high-fidelity simulation system demonstrated that the algorithms are able to reduce the location error significantly
