Abstract:

This paper provides an overview of the Special Session on Multistatic Sonar and Radar Tracking at FUSION 2006. This includes background on the Multistatic Tracking Working Group, a brief description of the datasets and trackers that compose this working group at present, and a detailed discussion of a proposed set of tracker performance metrics. We identify a number of issues associated with performance assessment for target tracking. We conclude with recommendations for continued performance assessment of multistatic trackers.
