This paper presents a new recursive filter algorithm, the robust high-degree cubature information filter, which can provide reliable state estimation in the presence of non-Gaussian measurement noise. The novel algorithm is developed in the framework of the conventional information filter. The fifth-degree Cubature rule is utilized to improve the estimation accuracy and numerical stability during the time update, while the Huber technique is adopted in the measurements update stage. As the Huber technique is a combined minimum l1 and l2 norm estimation algorithm, the proposed algorithm could exhibit robustness to the non-Gaussian measurement noise, especially the glint noise. In addition, Monte Carlo simulation and the trajectory estimation for ballistic missile experiments demonstrate that the robust high-degree cubature information filter can provide improved state estimation performance over extended information filter and high-degree cubature information filter.
