Here's an example of how to implement an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) in MATLAB for a simple system:

In this example, the system dynamics and measurement functions are defined as anonymous functions f
and h
. The initial state and covariance matrices are defined as x0
and P0
. The process and measurement noise covariance matrices are defined as R
and Q
, respectively.
We then generate some noisy measurements y
by running the system dynamics function f
on the true state x
(which is initialized to the origin) and adding noise.
We initialize the EKF state estimate and covariance as xhat
and Phat
, and loop over the measurements to update the estimates at each step.
The state propagation and covariance update steps are performed using the standard EKF equations, which involve linearizing the system dynamics around the current state estimate and using the Jacobian matrices to propagate the covariance.
The Kalman gain is then calculated using the linearized measurement function and updated state estimate covariance, and the state estimate and covariance are updated using the measurement residual and gain.
