Adaptive Cycle Based Sensor Management Method

Abstract

To solve the problems of frequent sensor switching and large calculation amount in traditional sensor management methods, a new sensor management method based on adaptive cycle is proposed. Firstly, the adaptive cycle setting method is researched from the aspects of target tracking accuracy and visible window for sensors and targets. Then, a multi-objective optimization model for sensor management based on the cycle is proposed, and the single-objective solution method is used to solve this model. The simulation results show that, comparing to the traditional sensor management method, this method can effectively reduce the sensor switching frequency and the calculation amount, also it can improve the efficiency of sensor management and avoid resource waste.
