Sensors, Vol. 18, Pages 2406: Adaptive Robust Unscented Kalman Filter via Fading Factor and Maximum Correntropy Criterion Sensors doi: 10.3390/s18082406 Authors: Zhihong Deng Lijian Yin Baoyu Huo Yuanqing Xia In most practical applications, the tracking process needs to update the data constantly. However, outliers may occur frequently in the process of sensors’ data collection and sending, which affects the performance of the system state estimate. In order to suppress the impact of observation outliers in the process of target tracking, a novel filtering algorithm, namely a robust adaptive unscented Kalman filter, is proposed. The cost function of the proposed filtering algorithm is derived based on fading factor and maximum correntropy criterion. In this paper, the derivations of cost function and fading factor are given in detail, which enables the proposed algorithm to be robust. Finally, the simulation results show that the presented algorithm has good performance, and it improves the robustness of a general unscented Kalman filter and solves the problem of outliers in system.
