  • Abstract
    The method of equivalent observation [1] is extended to vector-valued constant parameters and to uncorrelated measurement noise sequences. It is then used to determine easily calculated partial derivatives of final covariances with respect to parameter variances. Error matrices and bounds are developed in order to determine the range over which linearity may be assumed.
