A Landmark-Aided Navigation Approach with Side-Scan Sonar

Published in IEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering, 2025

This paper describes a novel Bayesian estimation method for using landmarks to navigate with side-scan sonar. The algorithm uses an unscented Kalman filter, a particle filter, and probabilistic data association. It is tested in simulation and in the field.
