Controlled search for targets arriving according to a spatio-temporal Poisson point process by an information measurement system with inhomogeneous scope
Abstract:
We consider the surveillance target search problem for the case in which the arrival of targets is modeled by a spatio-temporal Poisson point process and the information measurement system scope is inhomogeneous. A probabilistic description of the inhomogeneity subdomains is given, and patterns of taking them into account when forming the a posteriori intensity density of a random point process are revealed. A search control law synthesis procedure for the case of an inhomogeneous scope is defined. An example is given.
Keywords:search for targets, inhomogeneous scope, spatio-temporal Poisson point process.
