Hi:
I am reading the source codeof pplcount demo project. In gtrack_unitUpdate() function, we calculate the observation equation's Jacobian Matrix.
What I want to know is what the observation equation is, thank u!

Hi:

Thank u for your answer! I mean the nonlinear function in EKF.
For a simple Kalman Filter example:
X(k)=A X(k-1)+B U(k)+W(k)
Z(k)=H X(k)+V(k);
I call 'A' in the first formula a state transition(update) function, and 'H' in the 2nd formula a observation funtion.
In pplcount the function describes what is the ralationship between state vector X(k) [x, y, dot{x}, dot{y}, dotdot{x}, dotdot{y}] (same as s(n) in your answering) and observation vector Z(k).
In pplcount project, Z(k) = [range, azimuth, velocity], which is a 3x1 vector.
