Kalman filter is one of the most essential and important computing methods in the fields of control, signal processing and communication. In the past, mostly Kalman filter is implemented by DSP, but the operating speed could not meet the requirement. Therefore, the study will research the implement methods of Kalman filter based on FPGA. MicroBlaze soft core and VHDL (Hardware Description Language) are used to implement Kalman filter. The operating results will be analyzed and compared with each other.
The Federal Kalman filter is a kind of high operational efficiency autoregressive filter, it can estimate the dynamic system status values from measurement data containing noise. This article does some research about how to implement Federal Kalman filter with VHDL language on an FPGA platform. The design successfully loaded into the FPGA platform and operated normally.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
