Abstract
Hypersonic targets have complex motion states and high maneuverability. The traditional interactive multi-model (IMM) has low tracking accuracy and a slow convergence speed. Therefore, this paper proposes a strong tracking cubature Kalman filter (CKF) adaptive interactive multi-model (AIMM) based on multiple fading factors. Firstly, this paper analyzes the structure of the CKF algorithm, introduces the fading factor of the strong tracking algorithm into the covariance matrix of the time update and measurement update, and adjusts the filter gain online and in real time, which can reduce the decline infilter accuracy caused by model mismatch. Secondly, Singer model, “current” statistical (CS) model, and Jerk model are selected in the model set of IMM and introduced singular value decomposition (SVD) decomposition to solve the problem that Cholesky decomposition cannot be performed in the CKF due to the model dimension expansion. Last, an adaptive algorithm for the Markov matrix in the IMM is proposed. The transition probability was adaptively modified by the value of the model likelihood function to enhance the proportion of matching models. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm enhanced the proportion of matching models in the IMM and improved the tracking accuracy by 16.51% and the convergence speed by 37.5%.
