Description
Summary:Monitoring the Crustal Movement in Geodesy is performed by the deformation survey and analysis. If monitoring the crustal movements involves more than two epochs of survey campaign then from the plate tectonic theory, stations do not move randomly from one epoch to the other, therefore Kalman Filter may be suitable to use. However, if sudden movements happened in the crust in particular earthquake happened, the crust moves very fast in a very short period of time. When Kalman Filter used for monitoring these movements, from associated epoch, for a number of epochs the results may be biased. In the paper, comparison of two methods for elimination of the above mentioned biases have been performed. These methods are Fading Memory Filter and Adaptive Kalman Filter for an unknown bias.
