Detection, tracking and fusion of multiple HFSW radars for ship traffic surveillance: experimental performance assessment

Thumbnail
Abstract
Low-power HF surface-wave radars fit well the role of long-range early-warning tools in maritime situational awareness applications, by virtue of their over-the-horizon coverage capability and continuoustime mode of operation. In fact, these sensors, developed for ocean remote sensing, can represent also a further low-cost source of information for ship detection and tracking. Unfortunately, many shortcomings, like poor range and azimuth resolution, high non-linearity and significant presence of clutter, may degrade their performance. In this paper, multi-target tracking and data fusion techniques are applied to experimental data collected during the NATO Battlespace Preparation 2009 HF-radar campaign, which took place between May and December 2009 in the Mediterranean Sea. The system performance is defined in terms of time-on-target, false alarm rate and accuracy. Experimental results are presented and discussed.
