Performance Comparison of an Extended Kalman Filter and an Iterated Extended Kalman Filter for Orbit Determination of Space Debris with Poor Apriori Information and Intermittent Observations 

Hicks, Jimmy, Jr. (2012-11-06)
The growing space debris population threatens active and future missions bound for low earth orbit. The purpose of this study is to determine if an iterated extended Kalman filter (IEKF) can be used to yield better ...
