  • Abstract
    Using two separate algorithms, called Kalman´s recursive and Vaughan´s nonrecursive, exact closed-form solutions of the steady-state two-state exponentially correlated velocity (ECV) and three-state exponentially correlated acceleration (ECA) target-tracking filters are derived for discrete position measurements. For this particular application, the superiority of Vaughan´s nonrecursive over Kalman´s recursive algorithm is observed.
