一种圆周机动目标的机动中心估计方法

机动目标跟踪是无源探测中的关键问题,文章针对无源探测中飞行器常见的圆周机动轨迹跟踪问题,提出了一种改进的机动中心次优估计方法。通过对三点定圆方法中三点构型对圆心估计误差影响的分析,提出了一种基于对弦进行对称分组、增加交点集合过滤规则和加权平均来提高估计精度的方法,该方法有效地解决了弦中垂线交点法在噪声条件下估计误差大的问题。之后用本方法与机动中心坐标系法相结合对飞机的圆周飞行轨迹进行滤波,仿真结果验证了文中方法的有效性。与传统的弦中垂线相交法及最小二乘法相比,该方法在相同误差条件下,具有更小的计算量。

Abstract：

Maneuver target track is a key issue in passive location,and a suboptimal improved approach to estimate maneuver center was put forward based on circular maneuver track of aircraft. Through trigonometry error analysis in circle decision,a method was proposed by symmetrically sorting chords,adding filter rules for intersection set and weighted average,and this method overcame large estimation errors in traditional perpendicular bisector intersection method （PBIM） when polluted by noise. The suboptimal one and maneuvering-center coordinates approach were used to track circular maneuver of aircraft and the results show effectivity of this method. Comparing with traditional PBIM and least-squares procedure,the suboptimal method has similar error and less computation overhead.
