Abstract

An algorithm to estimate the delay between two track files without time stamps in a distributed track fusion architecture is proposed. The main aim in delay estimation is to make the proceeding track fusion more accurately. The performance of the proposed algorithm is illustrated on an example in which two radars observe a common surveillance area with one radar sending the track information with a deterministic delay. Moreover, a method is proposed if the delay estimation algorithm presents a bad performance under deterministic delay assumption.
