In parallel to an IMM model type tracker a second tracker estimates track heading and speed based upon differential measurements from multiple sensors. A differential measurement contains the differences between two subsequent measurements from one sensor. This new method accepts information from multiple sensors but completely avoids sensor registration problems. While a common multi radar tracker must take into account at least residual registration errors, the heading/speed tracker accepts the full accuracy of each individual sensor. This leads to high manoeuvre susceptibility and also to a high stability in the non manoeuvre case. The results demonstrate the tracking performance enhancement achieved by the combination of the new method with the standard tracking method.enTrack heading and speed estimationText/Conference Paper1617-5468
