Survey of maneuvering target tracking: II. Ballistic target models

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a comprehensive survey of the problems and techniques of tracking maneuvering targets in the absence of the measurement-origin uncertainty, including models for all three phases (boost, coast, and reentry).

Cramer-Rao bound for nonlinear filtering with Pd<1 and its application to target tracking

TL;DR: An approximation of the theoretical bound for practical applications, such as target tracking, where the number of sensor scans is large, is proposed and an application of the developed techniques to the well-known filtering problem of tracking a re-entry ballistic object is presented.

Missile guidance laws based on pursuit-evasion game formulations

TL;DR: In this paper two guidance laws are compared, both based on a pursuit-evasion differential game formulation, the first is a linear-quadratic one and the second one is formulated with bounded controls and the miss distance as the performance index.
