Abstract

This paper is about the solution of overdetermined and exactly determined linear system using SVD (Singular Value Decomposition) method for multistatic target tracking. The proposed radar system is a passive multistatic radar or Transmitter Independent Receiver Network. This system consists of a number of radar receivers networked together for coherent operation. In the introduction the system is briefly described. Then the linear equations of target are extracted and an SVD solution is proposed. Finally the solution is evaluated through a real-time simulation process, using inexpensive and readily available media. It is concluded that given enough computational power the SVD method is a plausible method for target tracking.
