Kalman filter for automatic tracking on the vehicular fire control system

For the problem that the conventional fire control system based on the coordinates of tank turret can not shoot preciously in high-speed action, a kinetic model was constructed for instantaneous motion between two tanks by using the ground-based coordinate transform to realize the automatic track in high-speed action on the dynamic state of the vehicular fire control system. With the real time data provided by vehicular laser rangefinders and sensors, Kalman filter algorithm was used to predict the trace of moving targets and realize automatic track of the vehicular fire control system. As a result, preparation time of shoot was shorten from 10 s to less than 4 s, and the first hit rate of tank increases from 50%-70% to more than 90% theoretically. The simulation results verify accuracy and satisfactory of the model, and the attempt was performed to improve the properties of fire control system.
