AN EXTENDED KALMAN FILTER ALGORITHM FOR INTEGRATING GPS AND LOW COST DEAD RECKONING SYSTEM DATA FOR VEHICLE PERFORMANCE AND EMISSIONS MONITORING

In this paper, the authors describe the features of an extended Kalman filter algorithm for supporting the navigational function of a real- time vehicle performance and emissions monitoring system that is currently under development. The Kalman filter is for processing Global Positioning System (GPS) data enhanced with dead reckoning (DR) in an integrated mode, in order to provide continuous positioning in built-up areas. The dynamic model and filter algorithms are described as well as the findings based on computer simulations and a limited field trial carried out in the Greater London area. Results show that using the extended Kalman filter algorithm allows the integrated system using GPS and low cost DR devices to meet the required navigation performance of the device.
