Matrix Riccati Equation<br />

The covariance calculations are independent of state (not so for EKF later)<br />

=> can be performed offline and are given by:<br />

This is the Riccati equation and can be obtained from the <strong>Kalman</strong> filter<br />

equations above.<br />

The solution of the Riccati equation in a time invariant system converges to<br />

steady state (finite) covariance if the pair {F, H} is completely observable (ie<br />

the state is visible from the measurements alone).
