This ZIP file contains fundamental principles and concise documentation for both Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) and Global Positioning System (GPS) algorithms. The primary objective is to provide a relatively straightforward EKF implementation that processes input functions directly rather than handling complex symbolic expressions. It serves as an introductory guide to Kalman filtering algorithms for GPS applications, facilitating deeper understanding of their underlying concepts. The EKF demonstration includes source materials comparing positioning solutions using both Extended Kalman Filter and Least Squares methods. The package comprises four MATLAB M-files and two data files, where Extended_KF.m contains the core EKF function implementation alongside supplementary functions and GPS sample data files.

The Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) relies solely on first-order derivatives from Taylor expansions of nonlinear functions, omitting higher-order terms. This approximation often introduces significant errors in estimating posterior state distributions, degrading both filtering algorithm performance and overall tracking system accuracy. Recently, the Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) has emerged as an adaptive filtering alternative. Unlike EKF, UKF employs carefully designed sigma points that propagate through nonlinear functions to capture first- and second-order statistical properties of random vectors. This approach better approximates nonlinear dynamics in state equations, yielding superior estimation precision compared to EKF implementations.
