9 Standard Kalman Filter he standard KF is based on a linear state space model linear system equation: x x Bf Sw w ~ N 0, observation equation: z Ax the state follows a first order hidden Marov process represented as Bayesian Dynamic Networ 1 v v ~ N 0, v w 4/19

10 Implementation of sewness into the state space model Alternative 1: Introducing the sewness in the sytem equation by modeling the input force as additive CSN noise: f ~ CSN,,D,, x sewed x 1 noise Bf Sw sewed problem: the sum of two CSN of dimension (n, m) is of dimension (n, 2m) rapid increase of the dimension of the matrices step D, Δ at each time 5/19
