Abstract
The feasibility of the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) using range and bearing measurements is explored for on-seawater applications. The input estimation technique used for in-air applications is tried and extended to on-sea water applications. The algorithm estimates, target motion parameters and detects target maneuver using chi-square distributed random sequence residual. Upon detection of target maneuvers, this algorithm corrects the velocity and position components using acceleration components, which are calculated using the input estimation technique. Finally, the performance of this algorithm is evaluated in Monte-Carlo Simulation.
