8. A surveillance spacecraft may have a set of sensors to track the status of different critical subsystems. It is of great importance to be able to fuse information from these sensors to create a global picture of the health of the spacecraft Which allow to predict an impending failure and correct it before it reaches criticality.

13. SIMULATION OF TARGET TRACKING AND ESTIMATION USING DATA FUSION Objective: Target tracking and estimation of a moving object Sensors required: Multiple sensors => Position estimation sensors => Velocity estimation sensors Need for heterogeneous multi sensors ? =>It is not possible to deduce a comprehensive picture about the entire target scenario from each of the pieces of evidence alone. =>Due to the inherent limitations of technical features characterizing each sensor. Coordinate system Selected : Cartesian coordinate system Technique applied : Multisensor data fusion using Kalman filter

15. Simulation has been carried out by with two-dimensional state model of the moving object along x; y and z directions. The program is executed in Mat lab environment .
16. As shown in figure estimation using state vector fusion method using Kalman filter is more close and accurate to actual track.
