Abstract
In [1], the optimal steady-state gains and associated error covariance s for an alpha, beta, GAMMA filter with a piecewise constant jerk as a maneuver model are presented. While the results given in [1] are corr ect, the gains and error covariances can be found in a much simpler ma nner. The simplified expressions for the gains and the error covarianc es are given, along with the code for a simple program that computes t he gains for a given tracking index.
