Estimation of aerosol particle number distributions with Kalman Filtering – Part 1: Theory, general aspects and statistical validity

Aerosol characteristics can be measured with different instruments providing observations that are not trivially inter-comparable. Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) is introduced here as a method to estimate aerosol particle number size distributions from multiple simultaneous observations. The focus her...
