A benchmark problem for tracking maneuvering targets is presented. The benchmark problem involves beam pointing control of a phased array (i.e., agile beam) radar against highly maneuvering targets in the presence of false alarms (FAs) and electronic counter measurements (ECM). The testbed simulation described includes the effects of target amplitude fluctuations, beamshape, missed detections, FAs, finite resolution, target maneuvers, and track loss. Multiple waveforms are included in the benchmark so that the radar energy can be coordinated with the tracking algorithm. The ECM includes a standoff jammer (SOJ) broadcasting wideband noise and targets attempting range gate pull off (RGPO). The limits on the position and maneuverability of the targets are given along with descriptions of six target trajectories. The "best" tracking algorithm is the one that minimizes a weighted average of the radar energy and radar time, while satisfying a constraint of 4% on the maximum number of lost tracks, The radar model, the ECM techniques, the target scenarios, and performance criteria for the benchmark are presented.
