These uncertainties severelyaffect filter performance and may even provoke divergence. Astrong tracking filter (STF), which utilizes a suboptimal fading factor,is an adaptive approach that is commonly adopted to solvethis problem. However, if the strong tracking SCKF (STSCKF)uses the same method as the extended Kalman filter (EKF) tointroduce the suboptimal fading factor, it greatly increases thecomputational load. To avoid this problem, a low-cost introductorymethod is proposed and a hypothesis testing theory is applied todetect uncertainties. The computational load analysis is performedby counting the total number of floating-point operations and it isfound that the computational load of LCASCKF is close to that ofSCKF. Experimental results prove that the LCASCKF performs aswell as STSCKF, while the increase in computational load is muchlower than STSCKF.展开更多

However, traditional fading factor introduction method hinders the accuracy and robustness advantages of current strong-tracking-based nonlinear filtering algorithms such as Cubature Kalman Filter(CKF) since traditional fading factor introduction method only considers the first-order Taylor expansion. To this end, a new fading factor idea is suggested and introduced into the strong tracking CKF method.The new fading factor introduction method expanded the number of fading factors from one to two with reselected introduction positions. The relationship between the two fading factors as well as the general calculation method can be derived based on Taylor expansion. Obvious superiority of the newly suggested fading factor introduction method is demonstrated according to different nonlinearity of the measurement function. Equivalent calculation method can also be established while applied to CKF. Theoretical analysis shows that the strong tracking CKF can extract the thirdorder term information from the residual and thus realize second-order accuracy. After optimizing the strong tracking algorithm process, a Fast Strong Tracking CKF(FSTCKF) is finally established. Two simulation examples show that the novel FSTCKF improves the robustness of traditional CKF while minimizing the algorithm time complexity under various conditions.展开更多
