Extended Kalman Filter

In the code box below I provide code for an Extended Kalman filter to model a sine wave. This is a mashup of code from a couple of toolboxes I have found online, namely learning-the-extended-kalman-filter and EKF/UKF Tollbox for Matlab/Octave. The modelled states are the phase, angular frequency and amplitude of the sine wave and the measurement is the ( noisy ) sine wave value itself.

function x_n = ekf_sine_f( x )
% Dynamical model function for the sine signal.
% Takes the input vector of phase, angular frequency in radians and 
% amplitude and calculates the next values of the states given the 
% current vector.

% transition matrix
A = [ 1 1 0 ;   % phase in Rads
      0 1 0 ;   % angular_freq_rads
      0 0 1 ] ; % amplitude
      
x_n = A * x ; 
x_n( 1 ) = mod( x_n( 1 ) , 2 * pi ) ;

endfunction

function Y = ekf_sine_h( x )
% Measurement model function for the sine signal.
% Takes the input vector of phase, angular frequency and amplitude and 
% calculates the current value of the sine given the input vector.

f = x( 1 , : ) ;    % phase in radians
a = x( 3 , : ) ;    % amplitude
Y = a .* sin( f ) ; % the sine

endfunction

function [ z , A ] = jacobian_transition( fun , x )
z = fun( x ) ;
A = [ 1 1 0 ;
      0 1 0 ;
      0 0 1 ] ;
endfunction

function [ z , A ] = jacobian_measurement( fun , x )
z = fun( x ) ;
A = [ x( 3 ) * cos( x( 1 ) ) 0 sin( x( 1 ) ) ] ;

The code is well commented so I won't talk further about it in this post as this is part of ongoing work. A fuller discussion in due course.
