The estimation of the state vector of a stochastic linear dynamic system is considered.
The state estimator for discrete-time linear dynamic systems driven by white noise — the (discrete-time) Kalman filter — is introduced.
Estimation of Gaussian random vectors.For linear systems, white noise Gaussian processes
Linear equations used for state prediction, prediction of the
measurement and for measurement update.
Exact propagation and measurement update equations for a priori
and a posteriori covariances
All pdfs stay exactly Gaussian, no need for approximations -
COMPUTATIONAL ASPECTS OF ESTIMATION; Information Filter
Implementation of Linear Estimation
The Information filter implementation of Kalman filter• carries out the recursive computation of the inverse of the covariance matrix.
• an alternative to the “standard“ Kalman filter formulation and is less demanding computationally for systems with dimension of
the measurement vector larger than that of the state.
• has the advantage that it allows the start-up of the estimation without an initial estimate, i.e., with a noniformative prior
• Suitable for distributed estimation for example in swarm roboticsTHE CONTINUOUS-TIME LINEAR STATE ESTIMATION FILTER
The linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) filter for this continuous time problem, known as the Kalman-Bucy filter
The duality of the LMMSE estimation with the linear-quadratic (LQ) control problem is discussed. These two problems have their
solutions determined by the same Riccati equation -
STATE ESTIMATION FOR NONLINEAR DYNAMIC SYSTEMS
• Present the optimal discrete-time estimator.
• Discuss the difficulty in implementing it in practice due to memory requirements and computational requirements.
• Discuss numerical implementation of the optimal discrete-time estimator.
• Derive the suboptimal filter known as the extended Kalman FilterTHE EXTENDED KALMAN FILTER
• Very limited feasibility of the implementation of the optimal filter, the functional recursion, suboptimal algorithms are of interest.
• The recursive calculation of the sufficient statistic consisting of the conditional mean and variance in the linear-Gaussian case is the simplest possible state estimation filter.
• As indicated earlier, in the case of a linear system with non-Gaussian random variables the same simple recursion yields an approximate mean and variance.
• A framework similar is desirable for a nonlinear system. Such an estimator, called the extended Kalman filter (EKF), can be obtained by a series expansion of the nonlinear dynamics and of the measurement equations. -

USE OF EKF FOR SIMULTANEOUS STATE AND PARAMETER ESTIMATION
The EKF can be used to estimate simultaneously
• the base state and
• the unknown parameters of a system.
This is accomplished by stacking them into an augmented state and
carrying out the series expansions of the EKF for this augmented state.MULTIPLE MODELS
