Extended Kalman Filter - Higher-order Extended Kalman Filters

Higher-order Extended Kalman Filters

The above recursion is a first-order extended Kalman filter (EKF). Higher order EKFs may be obtained by retaining more terms of the Taylor series expansions. For example, second and third order EKFs are described in . However, higher order EKFs tend to only provide performance benefits when the measurement noise is small.

Famous quotes containing the words extended and/or filters:

    Only very slowly and late have men come to realize that unless freedom is universal it is only extended privilege.
    Christopher Hill (b. 1912)

    Raise a million filters and the rain will not be clean, until the longing for it be refined in deep confession. And still we hear, If only this nation had a soul, or, Let us change the way we trade, or, Let us be proud of our region.
    Leonard Cohen (b. 1934)
