Applied Kalman filter theory

The objective of this study is to examine three problems that arise in experimental mechanics where Kalman filter (KF) theory is used. The first is estimating the steady state KF gain from measurements in the absence of process and measurement noise statistics. In an off-line setting the estimation...
