Abstract
The Kalman filter is a powerful tool in linear-systems analysis. The a uthors present a particular application in which there are more measur ements than states. In such an application, the state-space system can be replaced by an equivalent one that has the same number of measurem ents as states. The Kalman filter will produce the same stale estimate s for both systems. Using the equivalent system leads to a substantial saving in computer operations.
