Applying the unscented Kalman filter for nonlinear state estimation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Based on presentation of the principles of the EKF and UKF for state estimation, we discuss the differences of the two approaches. Four rather different simulation cases are considered to compare the performance. A simple procedure to include state constraints in the UKF is proposed and tested. The overall impression is that the performance of the UKF is better than the EKF in terms of robustness and speed of convergence. The computational load in applying the UKF is comparable to the EKF. 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Over the last 20-30 years, the extended Kalman filter (EKF) has become the algorithm of choice in numerous nonlinear estimation and machine learning applications. These include estimating the state of a nonlinear dynamic system as well estimating parameters for nonlinear system identification (e.g., learning the weights of a neural network). The EKF applies the standard linear Kalman filter met...
