Abstract
Extended Kalman filtering is applied to the PLRS (Position Locating Reporting System). Here the nonlinearity to the filter enters through the measurement (range only). The nonlinearity being the relationship between range and the Cartesian coordinate states of the filter. Filter covariances of error are portrayed as error ellipsoids. these are used to determine which one should be used to update a unit when there are several other units available for ranging. One should attempt to make the range measurement is the same direction of the major axis of error associated with the unit to be updated. The filtering techniques are evaluated using static units and high speed maneuvering aircraft.

    Signal to noise ratio improvement using wavelet and frequency domain based processing 

    Hippenstiel, Ralph Dieter (Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2002-05-24); NPS-EC-02-003
    This work investigates the use of wavelet and FFT based decompositions to improve the signal to noise ratio of noisy signals. In their respective transform domains, median filtering or predictive filtering is employed. ...
