Research abstract
Team ATA proposes to develop a set of Trajectory Reconstruction Algorithms for Consistent Event Registration (TRACER) that will estimate the time and accurate 6-state track estimates of the breakup event of a ballistic exo-atmospheric object. Since multiple data streams feed the system, the target tracking needs to be performed in a framework of multi-sensor filtering. This framework also needs to be able to handle the post breakup multi-target problem. The objective is new approaches for multi-target, multi-sensor data fusion and event reconstruction that provide the means necessary to inform battle management on a real-time basis of off-nominal target breakup events. Approved for Public Release 14-MDA-8047 (14 Nov 14)
