Tracking for Pulse Radars – the Kalman Filter

One of the most powerful statistical estimation techniques, which is widely applied in navigation, radar tracking, satellite orbit determination, autonomous driving, and many other fields is the Kalman filter. This digital filter provides a quite accurate estimation of the next state (position, movement, temperature, etc.) from any possible noisy input signal, in real time, which makes it very suitable for radar navigation and tracking purposes.
