Description for Tracking and Kalman Filtering Made Easy
Hardcover. This book is about radar tracking and the use of filters, particularly Kalman Filters. Tracking of moving targets, such as satellites, is complicated by the introduction of errors into the measurements resulting from noise and non-uniform vehicle motion. Such errors are smoothed out by filters. Num Pages: 504 pages, references, tables, figures, list of principal symbols and acronyms. BIC Classification: TJKD; TJKS. Category: (UU) Undergraduate; (XV) Technical / Manuals. Dimension: 242 x 166 x 32. Weight in Grams: 846.
A unique, easy-to-use guide to radar tracking and Kalmanfiltering
This book presents the first truly accessible treatment of radartracking; Kalman, Swerling, and Bayes filters for linear andnonlinear ballistic and satellite tracking systems; and thevoltage-processing methods (Givens, Householder, and Gram-Schmidt)for least-squares filtering to correct for computer round-offerrors. Tracking and Kalman Filtering Made Easy emphasizes thephysical and geometric aspects of radar filters as well as thebeauty and simplicity of their mathematics. An abundance of designequations, procedures, and curves allows readers to design trackingfilters quickly and test their performance using only a pocketcalculator!
