Abstract A polynomial filtering algorithm is proposed to solve a sea vehicle navigation problem using information on the range and radial velocity with respect to a fixed beacon, formulated in the context of the Bayesian approach. An example of practical implementation of the designed algorithm is considered. It is shown that the accuracy of the polynomial algorithm is close to that calculated by method of statistical tests with the use of a particle filter; in comparison, the Extended Kalman filter (EKF) yields a worse result.
