Multitarget Tracking Using Distributed Radar with Partially Overlapping Fields of Views
-
摘要: 在探测能力、波形设计及天线指向等因素制约下，分布式雷达视场并非完全重合，由此造成的观测信息差异给后续信息融合带来了巨大挑战。该文基于高斯混合实现的集势概率假设密度(CPHD)滤波器，提出了一种视场部分重叠下的分布式雷达多目标跟踪方法。首先，利用多目标密度乘积切分出概率假设密度(PHD)中表征共同观测信息的部分；之后，标准的分布式融合(算术平均或几何平均融合)方法作用于切分出的共同观测目标信息以提升跟踪性能，补偿融合则作用于雷达单独观测目标信息以扩展视场范围。该文方法无须视场先验信息，能够适应雷达视场未知时的分布式融合多目标跟踪场景。仿真实验验证了所提出方法在未知、时变雷达视场下跟踪多目标的性能，表明了该文方法比基于高斯混合的聚类方法性能更好。Abstract: The Fields of Views (FoVs) of radars in a distributed network partially overlap due to detecting capability, waveform design, and antenna orientation constraints, resulting in observed discrepancies between radars and a significant obstacle to future information fusion. In this paper, we propose a distributed multitarget tracking method under the scene of partially overlapping radar FoVs, based on the Gaussian Mixture Cardinalized Probability Hypothesis Density (GM-CPHD) filter. First, we employ the product of the multitarget densities to split the PHD functions and find the part that characterizes the information of the targets commonly observed by multiple radars. Then, a standard distributed fusion (arithmetic average or geometric average fusion) acts on the splitting information to improve tracking performance, and a compensation fusion acts on the remaining information to expand the observation FoV. The proposed method does not require prior knowledge of the radar’s FoV and may adapt to the scene of distributed multitarget tracking while the FoVs are unknown. Simulations are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach under the scene of unknown and time-varying radar FoVs, and show that the proposed method has better performance than that of the cluster method based on Gaussian matching.
