Joint tracking and classification based on aerodynamic model and radar cross section
The real aerodynamic model of the airplane is used as target motion model. RCS is included in the measurement vector and it provides main classification feature. FEKO is used to real-time simulate RCS data, so complicated calculation is avoided. IMMRPF is implemented to jointly track and classify targets, and results are superior.
