ABSTRACT:
A method and system for predicting a trajectory of an air-to-surface target missile is provided, including detecting a plurality of echo wave signals from the target missile through a plurality of sensors deployed at various locations relative to the target missile, extracting at least one range distance and at least one radial velocity, respectively, from the detected echo wave signals from the sensors by using a hybrid FSK/LFM unit, using a two-stage Kalman filter to filter the computed range distance and radial velocity to obtain a relative distance, a relative velocity and a relative acceleration, respectively, of the target missile, and finally applying trilateration on the relative distance, relative velocity and relative acceleration of the target missile from each two-stage Kalman filter to obtain a location, velocity and acceleration along the x, y, z directions.
