Abstract :
The following are explained: (1) the measurement circuit with pulse period; (2) the method of processing the speed and acceleration by the minimum square line approximation to the period; (3) the method of fixing a parameter; (4) the numerical formula and numerical computation of the Kalman filter used to speed-up the acceleration; and (5) an example of the processing
