Research on Particle Filter in Angular Glint Noise Condition

Angular glint noise is a kind of correlated and non-Gaussian noise.When dealing with tracking problem in correlated and non-Gaussian noise environment,performance of the traditional Kalman filter will degrade significantly.In this paper,particle filter(PF) is used to solve the tracking problem under glint noise and this method is compared with EKF.Computer simulation proves that the tracking performance of PF is far superior to that of EKF and that PF is practically valuable for engineering use.
