Kalman Filters and Pink Noise - Tim Wescott - 2012-08-23 20:10:00
Oddball question. Or maybe just a plea for comments. I'm kind of getting painted into a corner, and the color of the paint is pink. It's looking like I need to estimate pink noise with a Kalman filter. Anyone done anything remotely like this? Know of anyone who has? Did they survive? The method that I know of for simulating pink noise involves running white noise through a filter with a ton-o-poles (our own RBJ popped up in the web search, interestingly enough). I'm kinda planning on doing just that for the kernel in the Kalman, and see if I can find some sane balance between the number of states needed and accuracy. -- My liberal friends think I'm a conservative kook. My conservative friends think I'm a liberal kook. Why am I not happy that they have found common ground?

Hope this helps you with getting the correct color out. - Calvin______________________________

I gave a talk at the 2010 comp.dsp conference that has several pink noise filter solutions. http://compdsp.com/presentations.htm There are also many other presentations at this site.
