Abstract
Among many of the existing nonlinear filtering methods, particle filter has drawn special attention due to its ability to deal with nonlinear/non-Gaussian state estimation problems. But it suffers from degeneracy problem. In order the suppress this problem, in this paper, we introduced an iterated particle filter which is applied to the bearing only target tracking problem. The proposed method is on the base of the iterated Kalman filter which is used for building a proposal distribution for the particle filter. The iterated Kalman filter can improve the estimation accuracy by iteratively incorporating the current observations which makes it a better candidate for building proposal distribution and easy to be integrated into the particle filtering framework. Simulation results demonstrate that the iterated particle filter shows superior performance to the other methods in bearing only target tracking.
