Covariance Matching based robust Adaptive Cubature Kalman Filter

Abstract: This letter explores covariance matching-based adaptive robust cubature Kalman filter (CMRACKF). In this method, the innovation sequence is used to determine the covariance matrix of measurement noise that can overcome the limitation of conventional CKF. In the proposed algorithm, weights are adaptively adjusted and used for updating the measurement noise covariance matrices online. It can also enhance the adaptive capability of the ACKF. The simulation results are illustrated to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm.
