Method for passive “360-degree coverage” tactical fighter target tracking incorporating adaptive pilot maneuver cue processing

This invention describes a way for tactical fighter jets to quickly and secretly figure out where enemy aircraft are, how fast they're going, and in what direction. It does this by listening to their radio signals using angle measurements and signal strength data. The system uses specific mathematical techniques called maximum likelihood probabilistic data association filters and interacting multiple model estimators, and also gives the pilot cues on how to maneuver to get better tracking information.
