KD-EKF: A Consistent Cooperative Localization Estimator Based on Kalman Decomposition

In this paper, we revisit the inconsistency problem of EKF-based cooperative localization (CL) from the perspective of system decomposition. By transforming the linearized system used by the standard EKF into its Kalman observable canonical form, the observable and unobservable components of the sys…
