The traditional extended Kalman algorithm for multi-target tracking in the field of intelligent transportation does not consider the occlusion problem of the multi-target tracking process, and has the disadvantage of low multi-target tracking accuracy. A multi-target tracking algorithm using wireless sensors in an intelligent transportation system is proposed. Based on the dynamic clustering structure, the measurement results of each sensor are the superimposed results of sound signals and environmental noise from multiple targets. During the tracking process, each target corresponds to a particle filter. When the target spacing is relatively close to each other, each master node realizes distributed multi-target tracking through information exchange. At the same time, it is also necessary to consider the overlap between adjacent frames. Since the moving target speed is too fast, the target occlusion has the least influence on the tracking accuracy,and can accurately track multiple targets. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has a target tracking error of 0.5 m to 1 m, and the tracking result has high precision
