Kalman Filtering: Theory and Practice

by Mohinder S. Grewal, Angus P. Andrews

A thorough exploration of the theory and application of Kalman filtering to real-world situations. *book contains a floppy disk with C++ and MATLAB algorithms. *offers a heuristic treatment of essential material. *includes many often ignored design and implementation techniques. *explores the appropriate numerical methods for reliable implementation. *contains a variety of examples and problems taken from real-world application situations - e.g., modelling of gyros, accelerometers, inertial navigation; freeway traffic model; a harmonic oscillator; radar tracking; Global Positioning System (GPS) aided Inertial Navigation System (INS). *includes companion software to solve large dimension problems in the text.
