Abstract

A new approximating estimate method based on ant colony optimization algorithm for probability hypothesis density (PHD) filter is investigated and applied to estimate the time-varying number of targets and their states in clutter environment. Four key process phases are included: generation of candidates, initiation, extremum search and state extraction. Numerical simulations show the performance of the proposed method is closed to the sequence Monte Carlo PHD method.
