Elimination of effects of earthquake in monitoring crustal movement by adaptive Kalman filter

摘要

The effect of an earthquake occurring within crustal monitoring period by geodetic method in analysis using Kalman Filter Method has been eliminated by a proposed approach. The proposed method was tested using a real/simulated data. The result of the test showed that the effect of a strong earthquake (Mw=7.1) which had occurred in the Gulf of Eilat/Aqaba was eliminated. Thus consequently the proposed method is capable of removing or eliminating a sudden effect in monitoring crustal movements in the analysis by using the Kalman Filter.
