Using the recently proposed measure of nonlinearity (MoN), the authors try to find the magnitude of nonlinearity for passive target tracking with bearings-only measurements in underwater environment. The method derived to measure the nonlinearity is completely based on the state covariance matrices of the filters. It is tried to find the allowable magnitude of nonlinearity in terms of MoN with which a filter can perform to estimate the target motion parameters with required accuracy. In this paper, MoN values for different filters are computed for different scenarios. Results obtained in the Monte Carlo simulation are presented.

PurposeNowadays advancement in acoustic technology can be explored with marine assets. The purpose of the paper is pervasive computing underwater target tracking has aroused military and civilian interest as a key component of ocean exploration. While many pervasive techniques are currently found in the literature, there is little published research on the effectiveness of these paradigms in the target tracking context.Design/methodology/approachThe unscented Kalman filter (UKF) provides good results for bearing and elevation angles only tracking. Detailed methodology and mathematical modeling are carried out and used to analyze the performance of the filter based on the Monte Carlo simulation.FindingsDue to the intricacy of maritime surroundings, tracking underwater targets using acoustic signals, without knowing the range parameter is difficult. The intention is to find out the solution in terms of standard deviation in a three-dimensional (3D) space.Originality/valueA new method is found for the acceptance criteria for range, course, speed and pitch based on the standard deviation for bearing and elevation 3D target tracking using the unscented Kalman filter covariance matrix. In the Monte Carlo simulation, several scenarios are used and the results are shown.

In passive target tracking system, the observer trajectories have an important effect on the accuracy of target localization and tracking. This paper addressed an engineering approach to optimize the trajectory altitude of observer platform for airborne ESM surveillance system. The method proposed is based on Monte-Carlo run, which avoid complicated theoretical deduction and make the observer path easy-to-practice. By the analysis, the general principle of observer trajectory altitude optimization can be obtained. Within the range of allowed flying altitudes for observer, the measurements of elevation should be maintain or close to 45 degrees as much as possible.
