Abstract :
An architecture for a system to track multiple targets using passive sensors is examined in this paper. Attention is confined to the multitarget tracking capability at a single sensor. A practical algorithm has been designed within the framework of the optimal solution to the mathematical formulation of the multiobject tracking problem. The feasibility of utilizing the algorithm in practical scenarios is demonstrated with test results obtained using real data.
