Abstract
In the current paper, a modified version of the extended Kalman filter (EKF), when used as an observer for nonlinear discrete-time systems, is presented. The approach proposed consists in introducing time varying matrices to enhance convergence and stability of the obtained estimator. Based on a new formulation of the first order linearization technique, sufficient conditions to ensure local asymptotic convergence are established. Efficiency of this approach, compared to the classical version of the EKF, is shown through a nonlinear identification problem.

Stochastic stability of the discrete-time extended Kalman filter

TL;DR: It is shown that the estimation error remains bounded if the system satisfies the nonlinear observability rank condition and the initial estimation error as well as the disturbing noise terms are small enough.

The over-extended Kalman filter - don't use it!

TL;DR: In this paper, an alternative linearization of range rate that is not a function of the position elements is derived, which can improve a tracking system's velocity estimates without risk to its position estimates.

Joint Estimation of Battery Parameters and State of Charge Using an Extended Kalman Filter: A Single-Parameter Tuning Approach

TL;DR: This article combines a nonlinear observer with the structured representation of model uncertainty and disturbances as typically used in a robust-observer design approach and presents the joint EKF for simultaneous estimation of SoC and model parameters.

Adaptative high-gain extended Kalman filter and applications

TL;DR: The Adaptive High-Gain EKF is proposed, a solution to the "observability problem" for nonlinear dynamic systems that takes advantage of both efficiency with respect to noise smoothing and reactivity to large estimation errors, and the parameter that is the heart of the high-gain technique is made adaptive.

Nonlinear observers with linearizable error dynamics

TL;DR: In this article, a method for designing asymptotic observers for a class of nonlinear systems is presented, where the error between the state of the systems and the observer in appropriate coordinates evolves linearly and can be made to decay aribtrarily exponentially fast.

Asymptotic behavior of the extended Kalman filter as a parameter estimator for linear systems

TL;DR: In this paper, a convergence analysis of the extended Kalman filter for nonlinear systems with unknown parameters is given, and it is shown that in general the estimates may be biased or divergent and the causes for this are displayed.
