Written for graduate engineering students and engineers working in remote sensors and tracking, this book covers the design and implementation of state estimation algorithms for tracking and navigation. The book discusses the estimation of various quantities from inherently inaccurate remote observations. It also explains state estimator design using a balanced combination of linear systems, probability, and statistics. The authors provide a review of the necessary background mathematical techniques and offer an overview of the basic concepts in estimation. They then provide detailed treatments of all the major issues in estimation with a focus on applying these techniques to real systems. The book includes MATLAB implementations of Kalman filters and Interacting Multiple Model (IMM) estimators.
