A new radar-ESM correlation algorithm in multisensor data fusion

Abstract

Radar-ESM correlation is the basis of radar-ESM data fusion which is one of the key subjects in military multisensor data fusion. Based on the theory of set pair analysis and multiple hypothesis testing, a new radar-ESM correlation algorithm is presented, which is suitable for the situations where both radar and ESM tracks are specified by different numbers of measurements. Simulation results show the feasibility of the algorithm.
