Yes, but the base point is that it's not off the shelf standard Kalman. The noise covariance matrix may be sufficient, but I have not been convinced. Traditional Kalman only speak about white noise, which in our context becomes white phase modulation noise, but the actual model for noise uses a co-variance matrix and it becomes trivial to extend it to white frequency modulation noise, as it would be the noise for the frequency state. This white frequency modulation noise is not spoken much of in traditional literature, but actually fits the model as one builds a phase/frequency Kalman model. However, a noise model has at least two more fractional states, but the state model does not, and expressing that in Kalman matrixes is tricky to say the least. I've seen some papers touch on the subject, but I have not been convinced on their approach for the fractional noises.
