Abstract

In this paper, the problem of locating and tracking moving target with uniform acceleration by moving multi-stations is studied. Based on the time-difference information and frequency-difference information of target signal arriving at different base stations, a method of locating and tracking aerial moving target based on time-frequency difference is proposed. This method is based on extended kalman filter (EKF) and unscented kalman filter (UKF) filtering algorithms respectively to locate and track moving target, and compares the locating results of the two algorithms. This method can not only locate and track the aerial target, but also estimate the velocity and acceleration information of the target. The simulation results show that the location and tracking results of this method can achieve high positioning accuracy, and the positioning accuracy of UKF is better than that of EKF and better positioning results can be obtained, which has a certain reference value for the engineering realization of multi-station moving target location and tracking in the air.
