Abstract

Efforts to improve the convergence of the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) are presented. Three different scaling parameters are introduced which change the convergence properties of the estimation. Using an example nonlinear filtering problem, these scaling parameters are shown to increase the convergence rate of the EKF but at the cost of increased persistent estimation error. To remedy this, a time-varying scaling parameter is developed, which maintains the increased convergence rate of the filter without degrading the persistent estimation performance of the filter.
