Abstract
We present a general Monte Carlo-based algorithm for computing Bayesian estimates in non-linear state space models, and apply it to bearings-only target tracking. The parameters of the measurement noise are determined online as part of the state estimation. The state vector then becomes six-dimensional, but the problem is still handled in real time
