Abstract The fifth‐degree cubature Kalman filter (CKF) has been proved to be a kind of algorithm that has higher precision than the third‐degree CKF and unscented Kalman filter (UKF). In order to further improve the performance of CKF, the seventh‐degree CKF is proposed in this paper by expanding the spherical‐radial rule, and a new kind of deterministic sampling method is derived based on the seventh‐degree cubature rule. Through the comparison in target tracking simulation, the seventh‐degree CKF methods are shown to be able to enhance filtering precision compared to the fifth‐degree CKF, the third‐degree CKF and the UKF filter.
