An Improved Unscented Kalman Filter Applied to Positioning and Navigation of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles by Jinchao Zhao, Ya Zhang, Shizhong Li, Jiaxuan Wang, Lingling Fang, Luoyin Ning, Jinghao Feng, Jianwu Zhang

“…Excessive noise interference may cause a decrease in filtering accuracy and is highly likely to result in divergence by means of the traditional Unscented Kalman Filter, resulting in an increase in uncertainty factors during submersible mission execution. An estimation model for system noise, the adaptive Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) algorithm was derived in light of the maximum likelihood criterion and optimized by applying the rolling-horizon estimation method, using the Newton–Raphson algorithm for the maximum likelihood estimation of noise statistics, and it was verified by simulation experiments using the Lie group inertial navigation error model. …”
