Abstract

Nonlinear distributed tracking for a single target is addressed in this paper. This problem consists of tracking a target of interest while moving the sensors to 'best' positions according to an critera appropriate for the problem, Both target tracking and manoeuvring of sensors are carried out jointly using a novel Sequential Monte Carlo technique. The proposed technique is illustrated using a bearing-only problem and simulations are used to compare the performance of the proposed technique with distributed tracking using fixed sensors.
