this paper presents a new multi-sensor data fusion method based on the combination of wavelettransform (wt) and extended kalman filter (ekf). input data are first filtered by a wavelettransform via daubechies wavelet “db4” functions and the filtered data are then fused based onvariance weights in terms of minimum mean square error. the fused data are finally treated byextended kalman filter for...

Kalman filtering is a method for estimating state variables of a dynamic systems recursively from noise-contaminated measurements. For systems with nonlinear dynamics, a natural extension of the Linear Kalman Filter (LKF), called Extended Kalman filter (EKF) is used. The Kalman filter represents one of the most popular estimation techniques for integrating signals from navigation systems, like ...

In this paper we present a neural network extended Kalman filter for modeling noisy financial time series. The neural network is employed to estimate the nonlinear dynamics of the extended Kalman filter. Conditions for the neural network weight matrix are provided to guarantee the stability of the filter. The extended Kalman filter presented is designed to filter three types of noise commonly o...

The extended Kalman filter (EKF) is one of the most widely used methods for state estimation with communication and aerospace applications based on its apparent simplicity and tractability (Shi et al., 2002; Bolognani et al., 2003; Wu et al., 2004). However, for an EKF to guarantee satisfactory performance, the system model should be known exactly. Unknown external disturbances may result in th...

More accurate attitude angles can make the control of four-rotor aircrafts more precise. Various filters have been adopted to get more precise attitude angles. However, so far there is no suitable analysis system to evaluate the performance of filters. In this paper, an analysis system has been designed which can get the realistic attitude angles directly and compare the processing results of f...

The goal of this study is to compare the performances of the ensemble Kalman filter and a reduced-rank extended Kalman filter when applied to different dynamic regimes. Data assimilation experiments are performed using an eddy-resolving quasi-geostrophic model of the winddriven ocean circulation. By changing eddy viscosity, this model exhibits two qualitatively distinct behaviors: strongly chao...
