Abstract

This book is a monograph about radar data processing and its applications is the summary of international and domestic advances in the research field and fruits of authors’ research in recent several years. This book is composed seventeen chapters. The main contents are: radar data processing introduction(including motivation, significance, history and current state), parameter estimator and linear filtering approach, nonlinear filtering approach, pretreatment technique of measurement, track initiation in multi-target tracking, multi-target data association approach based on maximum likelihood, multi-target data association approach based on bayesian, maneuvering target tracking, group tracking, multi-target tracking ending theory and track management, passive radar data processing, pulse doppler radar and phased array radar data processing, radar net data processing, performance evaluation of radar data processing, simulation technique of radar data processing, practical application of radar data processing, the last is the review suggestion and prospect about the radar data processing theory.

This book could be used by the scientific and technical staffs engaged in information engineering, C3I system, radar engineering, electronic countermeasures, infrared technique, sonar technique, military command etc. to read and consult, and can also serve as textbook of upperclassman and graduate students of the above professions. This book also can be referenced by engineering staffs engaged in laser, robot, remote sensing and measure.
