A Survey of Maneuvering Target Tracking — Part II : Ballistic Target Models

This paper is the second part in a series that provides a comprehensive survey of the problems and techniques of tracking maneuvering targets in the absence of the so-called measurement-origin uncertainty. It surveys motion models of ballistic targets used for target tracking. Models for all three phases (i.e., boost, coast, and reentry) of motion are covered.
