Maneuver detection is crucial to improve the performance of space target tracking. A real-time maneuver detection method based on ranging measurements is proposed in this paper. The prediction residual of ranging measurement is selected as the test statistics. Then the maneuver and the outliers can be distinguished by setting multiple hypothesis tests. The traditional strong tracking filters can be improved by applied this detection method. The superiority of the proposed method is verified by a simulation case. Simulation results demonstrate that the new method can provide higher tracking accuracy than the traditional methods when the maneuver and the outliers both exist, and the maneuver and the outliers can be detected exactly.
