Hello, I already started some discussions dealing with kalman filter and Hinfinity Filter. But to get the point, again a question: According to my practical experiences so far with implementing both filters, I don't see any difference between them. my asumptions are: covariance matrices of the kalman filter = weighting matrices for the hinfinity filter. can anyone please point out the...

does anyone knows literature concerning models for kalman filter based azimuth and elevation tracking(without using range).Is it necessary to go to cartesian system of coordinates for kalman filter model?
kalman filter diverging?

Hi, I have implemented a discrete kalman filter which works well with the amount of data I have but the gain and the covariance estimate values seem to be increasing constantly and if I supply more data, I think I'll get a overflows in any precision of floating point I can use. The filter has to run indefinitely. Any pointers on how to stabilize discrete (extended) kalman filters ? Muzaff...

I have some questions regarding a Kalman filter design and implementation. I am new to Kalman filters so I apologize if my questions are too basic. I also apologize for my fairly long post. My application is an autonomous vehicle. I need estimates of x,y,z position and velocity in world frame. I have measurements from multiple sensors giving me z in world frame and x,y,z velocities and acc...

Hello. I just started to study Kalman filter for parameter estimation in state space model based on physics. After reading some introductory material, I thought so-called "joint extended kalman filter" might be the method for me. In that method, the parameters which I want to estimate are supposed to be additional members to states vector. Please recommend me useful toolbox to acceler...
Norm of Covariance Matrix

Hi to all, I have been also confused about the covariance matrix of the Kalman filter. I have a Kalman filter which has 9 states and therefore 9 X 9 error covariance matrix which is updated at the every time step. My question is; How can i be sure that the Kalman filter works properly by using the error covariance matrices. Should the norm of the error covariance matrix converge to ze...

Kalman Filter assumptions and optimality
Hi, I understand that The Kalman filter is a linear, recursive estimator that produces the minimum variance estimate in a least...
Hi, I understand that The Kalman filter is a linear, recursive estimator that produces the minimum variance estimate in a least squares sense under the assumption of white, Gaussian noise processes. Now, some books eg. Kalman Filtering with Real-Time Applications by Chui and Chen, has added this requirement that the updated estimate x_{k/k} is an unbiased estimate of x_{k} by choos...
Kalman filter book and practical use?

How important is it to understand all underlying theory behind Kalman filtering to actually be able to practically implement a Kalman filter in a design? I would like to find a book that builds up the needed knowledge to be able to do that. A book that doesn't jump rights a way into complicated formulas. I have found some recommendations to the following books: 1.) Introduction to Ran...

Hi, I have just started off with Kalman implementation. My aim is to estimate state vectors from the obseravtions (Z). I have doubt regarding estimation of process noise variance matrix, Quoting the state update eqtn Xhat = XPred + K_G ( Z - H * Xpred ) Where K_G is the Kalman Gain This eq follows the input model : X_n = Phi * X_n-1 + W_n 1) Am I right stating, the co-vari...

Hi, I've been undertaking a project to create a controller for a quadrotor aircraft. Whilst the dynamic modelling and controller design has nearly been completed I am having trouble getting the requried feedback signals. I am trying to implement a Kalman filter to combine the signals of accelerometers and gyroscopes to produce an attitude estimate. I have read all the introductory literature...

I'm looking for a processor board that has build in A/D (3 channels) and 3 outputs for an inertial nav system. It will have a kalman filter on board (maybe 9 states at least but I will implement the steady- state Kalman filter no Ricatti equations). Also fixed gains for state feedback control. It has to be reasonably compact and robust. I don't want a huge evaluation board - something more li...
Kalman filter
The tranditional Kalman filter equation is as follows: x(n)=F x(n-1)+w(n) y(n)=H x(n)+v(n) And x(n) is called "state". If there are two...
The tranditional Kalman filter equation is as follows: x(n)=F x(n-1)+w(n) y(n)=H x(n)+v(n) And x(n) is called "state". If there are two states, x1(n) and x2(n), x1(n)=F1 x1(n-1)+w1(n) x2(n)=F2 x2(n-1)+w2(n) y(n)=H1 x1(n)+H2 x2(n)+v(n) Is it still the Kalman filter? How to make estimation? Or can you refer me some papers? Thanks.

Hi Group! I am new to the net. Hope I dont disappoint U with naive questions. Well, a couple of papers I have gon thru on enhancing speech using Kalman filters. I understand Kalman filtering, no problem with that. The problems actually are: 1). Why the stationary assumed frames being windowed non-rectangularly before extracting AR parameters? 2). Furtermore, the segments are being overlapped! Wh...

I understand that in Kalman filtering, the minimum variance estimator can be found by orthogonal projection of X(k) on the space spanned by linear combinations of observations Y(0), Y(1),...Y(k). However I went to a seminar and one of the speaker ws saying that Kalman filter implicitly weights the more recent value greater than the past values i.e. the weights associating to an observation...

Dear all, I am doing a final year project to estimate the power consumption of a chiller plant. I have built a basic model by using Kalman Filter and get a result with some percent of error. For my model, I used a moving windows say 60 sets of data, then calculated the parameters to be estimated from these data sets. Use these a,b,c,d,e and the measurement of 61set of data to estimat...
Kalman filter - getting biased estimates: for multi parameter estimation

I am a beginner & am using Kalman Filter for multiple parameter estimation in processing of dual freq. carrier phase navigation receiver.(position, velocity, Ionospheric error, receiver bias(units of length) and transmitter(satellite) bias (again units of length) are the five parameters I am estimating together). When I start with a very poor estimate to begin the filter (meaning when I give highe...
