ASMT: An augmented state-based multi-target tracking algorithm in wireless sensor networks

Due to the resource limitation and low performance of sensor node, research works of multi-target tracking became a hot spot in the applications of wireless sensor networks. Here, we propose an algorithm named augmented state-based multi-target tracking algorithm. To augment the state of the target...

description Due to the resource limitation and low performance of sensor node, research works of multi-target tracking became a hot spot in the applications of wireless sensor networks. Here, we propose an algorithm named augmented state-based multi-target tracking algorithm. To augment the state of the target tracking, augmented state-based multi-target tracking algorithm can effectively reduce the computational complexity of data association. Then, multi-target tracking in wireless sensor networks can be implemented by augmented state-based multi-target tracking algorithm as a simplified Bayesian estimation method is adopted. The simulation of multi-target tracking in wireless sensor networks demonstrates that augmented state-based multi-target tracking algorithm has less computation and higher accuracy than traditional method, especially in the implementation of maneuvering targets with intersection.
