结合幅度信息的扩展目标随机有限集跟踪方法

基于随机有限集的扩展目标跟踪方法通常根据量测的空间信息进行量测划分，在杂波密集环境下有可能将杂波量测划入目标单元，从而造成跟踪性能的下降。为此，该文将目标和杂波的幅度信息引入高斯逆威沙特概率假设密度(GIW-PHD)滤波器，通过计算量测子集的幅度似然寻找最优的量测划分方法。此外，计算量测单元的中心时，采用幅度加权的方法计算量测单元的质量中心，以取代目前广泛使用的几何中心，从而进一步降低杂波对滤波器的干扰。在信杂比分别为13 dB和6 dB的条件下，通过对Rayleigh杂波中Swerling 1型起伏目标的跟踪结果证明了所提方法相比高斯逆威沙特概率假设密度滤波器具有更优的势估计和状态估计性能。 

Random Finite Set-based Extended Target Tracking Method with Amplitude Information

The random finite set-based extended target tracking methods generally partition measurements by spatial information. It is possible to place clutter measurements into target cells in a dense clutter environment resulting in degradation of tracking performance. To solve this issue, in this paper, the amplitude information of the target and clutter was introduced into the Gaussian Inverse Wishart Probability Hypothesis Density (GIW-PHD) filter, and thus, the optimal partition was found by calculating the amplitude likelihood of the measurement cells. Additionally, when calculating the centroid of a measurement cell, amplitude was used as a weighting factor to find the mass center instead of the widely used geometric center. This further reduced clutter interference. The tracking results of Swerling 1 fluctuating targets in a Rayleigh clutter when the signal-to-clutter ratios were 13 dB and 6 dB showed that the performance of the proposed algorithm in cardinality estimation and state estimation was better than that of the GIW-PHD filter.
