The high frequency surface wave radar (HFSWR) with detection capability of hundreds of kilometers plays an important role in marine surveillance [1]-[8]. Nevertheless, HFSWR has low azimuth measurement accuracy, which causes great deviation of target location and tracking [9]. Meanwhile, the miniaturization of radar arrays leads to the limitation of antenna length, which further causes severe decline of azimuth accuracy. Moreover, the interference from external environment also decreases the azimuth accuracy, making the accurate tracking of vessels difficult. In recent years, the 2-HFSWR multisensor surveillance system has become a hot spot, because it only requires parameters of distance and velocity without using the azimuth measurement when tracking vessels. The 2-HFSWR multisensor surveillance system consists of two independent radars implementing the target location and tracking task by detecting the radial distance and velocity, respectively. The 2-HFSWR multisensor surveillance system can ensure the detection accuracy without azimuth measurement, which is advantageous to the miniaturization of HFSWR. However, there are still certain complicated cases to be solved for continuous tracking of vessels, for example sudden change in motion state, an inaccurate model, and unknown priori statistical properties of noise.
