  • Abstract
    We propose and study a new distributed Kalman filter algorithm that can track unstable dynamics with bounded mean-squared error (MSE). The Network Tracking Capacity (NTC) of this algorithm depends only on the diffusion rate of the network and is independent of the local observation patterns, only requiring global observability. We analyze and compare the NTC for different network models.
