Abstract
Continuous and stable tracking of the ground maneuvering target is a challenging problem due to the complex terrain and high clutter. A collaborative tracking method of the multisensor network is presented for the ground maneuvering target in the presence of the detection blind zone (DBZ). First, the sensor scheduling process is modeled within the partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP) framework. To evaluate the target tracking accuracy of the sensor, the Fisher information is applied to constructing the reward function. The key of the proposed scheduling method is forecasting and early decision-making. Thus, an approximate method based on unscented sampling is presented to estimate the target state and the multi-step scheduling reward over the prediction time horizon. Moreover, the problem is converted into a nonlinear optimization problem, and a fast search algorithm is given to solve the sensor scheduling scheme quickly. Simulation results demonstrate the proposed non-myopic scheduling method (Non-MSM) has a better target tracking accuracy compared with traditional methods.
