Abstract:

Sensor management is an important component of multisensor fusion systems. Since there exists the lack of an efficient method for multisensor fault control of sensor management, a method of sensor management based on the finite state automata (FSA) is proposed. Firstly,different control strategies for sensor management are modeled by the real language measure. The legal behavior of control strategy modeled by FSA can generate a partially ordered set of controlled languages. Then an identification method of the language measure parameters based on an FSA model is proposed. The language measure creates a total ordering on the performance of the controlled languages. The experiment validates that FSA model can design sensor fault control strategies, and the language measure can evaluate the performance of the different control strategies effectively.
