Extended Kalman Filter for Ship Tracking

Abstract

There are obvious electrostatic field characteristics around the ship.Eelectric dipole in three-layer medium is used to describe the characteristics of the ship.The tracking problem of electric dipole with extend Kalman Filter is studied.First, according to the movement characteristics of the target, state space model is built.Then the extend Kalman Filter is introduced.Simulation results demonstrate that this method is feasible for the field of the real-time tracking of ship with the advantage of high preciseness.
