Effects of non-normal outlier-prone error distribution on Kalman filter track

This report is about the effects of non-normality on the efficiency of the Kalman filter, particularly when the distribution of measurement errors is still symmetric but the tails are extended, which means that the observations are outlier-prone. Kalman Filter.
