Abstract

A target-tracking method using the ground moving target indicator (GMTI) mode on active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar is proposed. The GMTI mode can operate in wide ground areas. However, the 3-dB beamwidth of the X-band radar is narrow, and a target is detected on multiple adjacent beams. To delete overlapping target plots, beam-to-beam processing considering a real-time system is proposed. In addition, a track while scan (TWS) multiple-target-tracking algorithm was constructed for the system. Through a flight test with true car mounted GPS, it was confirmed that the real-time processing ability and target-tracking performance of the GMTI algorithm were satisfactory.
