Ship Tracking with Static Electric Field Based on Adaptive Progressive Update Extended Kalman Filter

Shouwei Hu, Bing Cheng Yan · MATEC Web of Conferences · 2018

An adaptive progressive update extended Kalman filter is introduced for unknown noise in ship tracking using static electric field. The corresponding state space model is established; the algorithm is introduced, and the simulation is designed. The simulation results show that the adaptive algorithm can effectively improve the performance of the algorithm, when the noise covariance deviates from the real value; the finite number of noise covariance estimation is beneficial to the stability of the filter.
