Benchmark Evaluation of Multistatic Trackers

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
