Unscented Kalman Filter With General Complex-Valued Signals

2022 
For the estimation of real-valued Gaussian signals, the unscented Kalman filter (UKF) can provide a state estimate with second-order accuracy. However, when a general complex-valued system is considered, a direct extension of UKF from the real domain to the complex domain is inadequate, since the complementary covariance information associated with general improper complex-valued signals has been systematically ignored. To this end, in this work, we propose a general complex-valued unscented Kalman filter (GCUKF) algorithm which can be applied for both proper and improper signals. This is achieved by first proposing a novel sigma points selection scheme for the general complex-valued case, followed by a modified state update method to fully utilize both the innovation and its conjugate. A rigorous MSE analysis illustrates the superiority of the proposed state update method, and simulations support the analysis.
