Abstract:
A control system for dynamically tracking and targeting multiple targets wherein the targets have position sensors and communicate to with central location that uses the information to process projected locations of moving targets. The system uses several means to smooth the track and to deal with missing or degraded data, wherein the data may be degraded in either time or location. The present system can use a combination of Kalman filtering algorithms, multiple layers of smoothing, decoupled recording of predicated positions and use of those predications along with optimization of speed of apparent target motion to achieve a degree of time on target.
