VERTICAL ACTIVITY ESTIMATION USING 2D RADAR

Abstract

Understanding airspace activity is essential for airspace control. Being able to
detect vertical activity in aircraft allows prediction of aircraft intent, thereby
allowing more accurate situation awareness and correspondingly more appropriate
airspace control response. The method for qualitative vertical activity estimation as
presented is characterised by a very fast response time and requires minimal sensor
input. The method relies on the interplay of two opposing motion prediction models.
The efficacy of the method is demonstrated in both simulated and real-world data.
