Abstract

The optimal Bayesian filter for a single target is known to provide the best tracking performance in a cluttered environment. However, its main drawback is the increase in memory size and computation quantity over time. In this paper, the inevitable predicament of the optimal Bayesian filter is resolved in a suboptimal fashion through the use of a receding horizon strategy. As a result, the problems of memory and computational requirements are diminished. As a priori information, the horizon initial state is estimated from the validated measurements on the receding horizon. Consequently, the suboptimal algorithm proposed allows for real time implementation.
