A New Method Implementation of Kalman Filter Based on FPGA

Abstract

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.
