Abstract
In this paper, the problem of wind profile extraction and impact point prediction from projectile trajectory measurements is formulated within the extended Kalman filtering framework. Factorized implementations of extended Kalman filtering, smoothing, and prediction algorithms are developed. Different wind models are discussed. The algorithms are demonstrated through simulation
