Abstract
This paper discusses algorithms that can be used to estimate the position and possibly in addition the velocity of an object by means of bistatic measurements. Concerning position-only estimation based on bistatic range measurements, improved versions of an approximate maximum-likelihood estimator will be introduced and compared with methods known from literature. The new estimators will then be extended to also estimate velocity based on additional range-rate measurements. Simulation results confirm that the proposed estimators yield errors close to the Cramer-Rao lower bound.
