Abstract
In this paper, we tackle the problem of selecting the radar node positions to provide an estimate of the target state vector with a prescribed accuracy. The topology optimization problem is formulated as selection of a fixed number of radar node positions from a set of available ones, where the radar observations are modeled by a general non-linear model. We further propose a topology optimization framework for the simultaneous estimation of the multi-modal parameter vector. In particular, the task of joint position and velocity estimation is considered. The feasibility of the proposed approach is demonstrated for several cost functions, namely the frame potential as well as the log-determinant and maximum eigenvalue of the error covariance matrix.
