Abstract
Particle filter has been proven to be a very effective method for identifying targets in non-linear and non-Gaussian environment. However, particle filter is computationally intensive. So, particle filter has been implemented on FPGA by exploiting parallel and pipelining approaches to reduce the computational burden. Our optimized FPGA implementation improves up to twelve times speed up. Also more speed ups are achieved with increasing number of particles.
