Abstract: To attack the maneuvering target tracking problem in LOS/NLOS hybrid environments, an interacting multiple model (IMM) tracking algorithm based on "current" statistical (CS) model and unscented Kalman filter (UKF) was proposed (IMM-UKF-CS). In the framework of IMM, it took advantage of CS in maneuvering target tracking and chose UKF as the sub-filter for the high positioning accuracy and low computational cost. Simulation results show that IMM-UKF-CS possesses higher tracking accuracy, better robustness and lower time cost, which promises for maneuver target tracking in LOS/NLOS hybrid environments.
