De-correlated Compression Filter Based on Time-Propagated Measurement Fusion

In this paper, a new fusion architecture consisting of a host filter and a do-correlated compression filter is proposed based on propagated measurement fusion. In the proposed architecture, the host filter estimates the system states in long-term sense based on the measurements from the beginning to the current time. The de-correlated compression filter assists the host filter by providing fusion results in short-term sense based on the measurements within a block of time. The proposed de-correlated compression filter alleviates computational burden of the host filter by reducing the maximum amount of instantaneous computation, and provides an efficient environment for real-time fault detection and estimation.
