Sensor and Data Fusion: A Tool for Information Assessment and Decision Making

Front Cover
SPIE Press, 2004 - Technology & Engineering - 317 pages

This book illustrates the benefits of sensor fusion by considering the characteristics of infrared, microwave, and millimeter-wave sensors, including the influence of the atmosphere on their performance.

Applications that benefit from this technology include:

  • vehicular traffic management
  • remote sensing
  • target classification and tracking
  • weather forecasting
  • military and homeland defense

Covering data fusion algorithms in detail, Klein includes a summary of the information required to implement each of the algorithms discussed, and outlines system application scenarios that may limit sensor size but that require high resolution data.
