The Ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) is a standard algorithm in oceanography and meteorology, where it has got thousands of citations. It is in these communities appreciated since it scales much better with state dimension n than the standard Kalman filter (KF). In short, the EnKF propagates ensembles with N state realizations instead of mean values and covariance matrices and thereby avoids the computational and storage burden of working on n x n matrices. Perhaps surprising, very little attention has been devoted to the EnKF in the signal processing community. In an attempt to change this, we present the EnKF in a Kalman filtering context. Furthermore, its application to nonlinear problems is compared to sigma point Kalman filters and the particle filter, so as to reveal new insights and improvements for high-dimensional filtering algorithms in general. A simulation example shows the EnKF performance in a space debris tracking application. |
