Sensor Management: Past, Present, and Future
Sensor systems typically operate under resource constraints that prevent the
simultaneous use of all resources all of the time. Sensor management becomes
relevant when the sensing system has the capability of actively managing these
resources; i.e., changing its operating configuration during deployment in
reaction to previous measurements. Examples of systems in which sensor
management is currently used or is likely to be used in the near future include
autonomous robots, surveillance and reconnaissance networks, and waveform-agile
radars. This paper provides an overview of the theory, algorithms, and
applications of sensor management as it has developed over the past decades and
as it stands today.Comment: 15 pages, 112 reference
