Abstract

Abstract: One of the most difficult tasks for tracking in control systems in the presence of uncertainty is estimating the accuracy and efficiency of hidden variables. For tracking applications, the Kalman filter is the most extensively used estimation algorithm. However, tracking several objects remains a difficult effort in order to improve prediction and corrective results. For tracking several objects, a multi-dimensional Kalman filter (MDKF) based on state estimations is offered as a solution. This research also includes a performance analysis of the MDKF for tracking paths by modifying co-efficients of the steady-state and covariance equations. For linear dynamic systems, MDKF is evaluated. Path tracking using the Kalman filter and MDKF is also investigated. The true and filtered responses of MDKF filtering algorithm for path tracking are observed. After four trials, the output covariance yields steady state values. The simulation results reveal that our proposed filtering algorithm performs 2x better than a typical Kalman filter for objects moving in linear motion, indicating that it is suitable for real-time implementation.
