This study developed a distributed vehicle target detection and estimation capability using two algorithmic approaches designed to take advantage of the capabilities of networked sensor systems. The primary interest was on small, quiet vehicles, such as personally owned SUVs and light trucks. The first algorithm approach utilized arrayed sensor beamforming techniques. In addition, it demonstrated a capability to find locations of unknown roads by extending code developed by the Army Acoustic Center for Excellence at Picatinny Arsenal. The second approach utilized single (non-array) sensors and employed generalized correlation techniques. Modifications to both techniques were suggested that, if implemented, could yield robust methods for target classification and tracking using two different types of networked sensor systems.
