Abstract  In airborne tracking, the blind Doppler makes the target undetectable, resulting in tracking difficulties. In this paper, we studied most possible blind-Doppler cases and summed them up into two types: targets’ intentional tangential flying to radar and unintentional flying with large tangential speed. We proposed an interacting multiple model (IMM) particle filter which combines a constant velocity model and an acceleration model to handle maneuvering motions. We compared the IMM particle filter with a previous particle filter solution. Simulation results showed that the IMM particle filter outperforms the method in previous works in terms of tracking accuracy and continuity.
