Abstract

The multiple targets tracking method based on probability hypothesis density filter and its application results in radar system are given. First of all, the theory background of the PHD filtering was introduced. Secondly, the basic concepts and algorithm framework of PHD filtering are reviewed. Then the deficiencies in the engineering application are pointed out, and the Multi-targets tracking method based on PHD filter in radar system is presented. Finally, the results for engineering applications of the multiple target tracking based on PHD filtering in radar system are introduced. Results showed that the PHD filter can effectively solve the problems of Track initiation, organizing batch, and so on, under the condition of low detection probability.
