2. 2016-3-11 Kalman filter algorithm for tracking 2  Kalman filter prediction provides a good criterion for hit selection;  Kalman filter accumulates hit information and calculates the track parameters;  So it can combine track finding and track fitting. δχ 2 is reasonable, accept hit δ χ 2 is bigger than cut, abandon hit measurement prediction K:gain matrix System equation and measurement equation a: state vector f: propagation function m: measurement h: projection function w: system noise ε: measurement error prediction update C:covariance of S.V.

3. Track models 3 state vector 2D straight track transfer matrix projection matrix State vector  Despite of different track model, the way for adding a hit into track is the same: track following method. 2016-3-11 d ρ : the distance beteen the helix and the hit in x-y plane φ 0 : the azimuthal angle of the hit with respect to the helix center κ : Q / P t d z : the distance between the helix and the hit in the z direction tan λ: the angle of the helix to the x-y plane For more about Kalman filter and helix model, please see KalTest manual: http://www-jlc.kek.jp/subg/offl/kaltest/

10. Summary  Kalman filter based MarlinTPC processor has been developed for multi module tracking – including straight line and helix.  The code has been tested by MC data, and the first version is committed to MarlinTPC trunk;  The solution to non-uniform magnetic field is decided. Next work is to implement it in KalTest. 102016-3-11
