The missing measurements are described by a binary switching sequence satisfying a conditional probability distribution. An upper bound for the state estimation error variance is first derived for all possible missing observations and all admissible parameter uncertainties. Then, a robust filter is designed, guaranteeing that the variance of the state estimation error is not more than the prescribed upper bound. It is shown that the desired filter can be obtained in terms of the solutions to two discrete Riccati difference equations, which are of a form suitable for recursive computation in online applications. A simulation example is presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed approach by comparing to the traditional Kalman filtering method
Second-Order Fault Tolerant Extended Kalman Filter for Discrete Time Nonlinear Systems
As missing sensor data may severely degrade the overall system performance and stability, reliable state estimation is of great importance in modern data-intensive control, computing, and power systems applications. Aiming at providing a more robust and resilient state estimation technique, this paper presents a novel second-order fault-tolerant extended Kalman filter estimation framework for discrete-time stochastic nonlinear systems under sensor failures, bounded observer-gain perturbation, extraneous noise, and external disturbances condition. The failure mechanism of multiple sensors is assumed to be independent of each other with various malfunction rates. The proposed approach is a locally unbiased, minimum estimation error covariance based nonlinear observer designed for dynamic state estimation under these conditions. It has been successfully applied to a benchmark target-trajectory tracking application. Computer simulation studies have demonstrated that the proposed second-order fault-tolerant extended Kalman filter provides more accurate estimation results, in comparison with traditional first- and second-order extended Kalman filter. Experimental results have demonstrated that the proposed second-order fault-tolerant extended Kalman filter can serve as a powerful alternative to the existing nonlinear estimation approaches
Robust variance-constrained filtering for a class of nonlinear stochastic systems with missing measurements
The official published version of the article can be found at the link below.This paper is concerned with the robust filtering problem for a class of nonlinear stochastic systems with missing measurements and parameter uncertainties. The missing measurements are described by a binary switching sequence satisfying a conditional probability distribution, and the nonlinearities are expressed by the statistical means. The purpose of the filtering problem is to design a filter such that, for all admissible uncertainties and possible measurements missing, the dynamics of the filtering error is exponentially mean-square stable, and the individual steady-state error variance is not more than prescribed upper bound. A sufficient condition for the exponential mean-square stability of the filtering error system is first derived and an upper bound of the state estimation error variance is then obtained. In terms of certain linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), the solvability of the addressed problem is discussed and the explicit expression of the desired filters is also parameterized. Finally, a simulation example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed design approach.This work was supported in part by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) of the UK under Grant GR/S27658/01, the Royal Society of the UK and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany

H∞ fault estimation with randomly occurring uncertainties, quantization effects and successive packet dropouts: The finite-horizon case
In this paper, the finite-horizon H∞ fault estimation problem is investigated for a class of uncertain nonlinear time-varying systems subject to multiple stochastic delays. The randomly occurring uncertainties (ROUs) enter into the system due to the random fluctuations of network conditions. The measured output is quantized by a logarithmic quantizer before being transmitted to the fault estimator. Also, successive packet dropouts (SPDs) happen when the quantized signals are transmitted through an unreliable network medium. Three mutually independent sets of Bernoulli-distributed white sequences are introduced to govern the multiple stochastic delays, ROUs and SPDs. By employing the stochastic analysis approach, some sufficient conditions are established for the desired finite-horizon fault estimator to achieve the specified H∞ performance. The time-varying parameters of the fault estimator are obtained by solving a set of recursive linear matrix inequalities. Finally, an illustrative numerical example is provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed fault estimation approach

Because of the limited bandwidth of the channels, such random packet losses could occur, simultaneously, in the communication channels from the sensor to the controller and from the controller to the actuator. The random packet loss is assumed to obey the Bernoulli random binary distribution, and the parameter uncertainties are norm-bounded and enter into both the system and output matrices. In the presence of random packet losses, an observer-based feedback controller is designed to robustly exponentially stabilize the networked system in the sense of mean square and also achieve the prescribed Hinfin disturbance-rejection-attenuation level. Both the stability-analysis and controller-synthesis problems are thoroughly investigated. It is shown that the controller-design problem under consideration is solvable if certain linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) are feasible. A simulation example is exploited to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed LMI approach

Filtering for uncertain 2-D discrete systems with state delays
This is the post print version of the article. The official published version can be obtained from the link below - Copyright 2007 Elsevier Ltd.This paper is concerned with the problem of robust H∞ filtering for two-dimensional (2-D) discrete systems with time-delays in states. The 2-D systems under consideration are described in terms of the well-known Fornasini–Marchesini local state-space (FMLSS) models with time-delays. Our attention is focused on the design of a full-order filter such that the filtering error system is guaranteed to be asymptotically stable with a prescribed H∞ disturbance attenuation performance. Sufficient conditions for the existence of desired filters are established by using a linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, and the corresponding filter design problem is then cast into a convex optimization problem that can be efficiently solved by resorting to some standard numerical software. Furthermore, the obtained results are extended to more general cases where the system matrices contain either polytopic or norm-bounded parameter uncertainties. A simulation example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed design method.This work was partially supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (60504008), Program for New Century Excellent Talents in University of China and the Postdoctoral Science Foundation of China (20060390231)

Robust H∞ filtering for networked systems with multiple state delays
This is the post print version of the article. The official published version can be obtained from the link below - Copyright 2007 Taylor & Francis Ltd.In this paper, a new robust H∞ filter design problem is studied for a class of networked systems with multiple state-delays. Two kinds of incomplete measurements, namely, measurements with random delays and measurements with stochastic missing phenomenon, are simultaneously considered. Such incomplete measurements are induced by the limited bandwidth of communication networks, and are modelled as a linear function of a certain set of indicator functions that depend on the same stochastic variable. Attention is focused on the analysis and design problems of a full-order robust H∞ filter such that, for all admissible parameter uncertainties and all possible incomplete measurements, the filtering error dynamics is exponentially mean-square stable and a prescribed H∞ attenuation level is guaranteed. Some recently reported methodologies, such as delay-dependent and parameter-dependent stability analysis approaches, are employed to obtain less conservative results. Sufficient conditions, which are dependent on the occurrence probability of both the random sensor delay and missing measurement, are established for the existence of the desired filters in terms of certain linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). When these LMIs are feasible, the explicit expression of the desired filter can also be characterized. Finally, numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed design method.This work was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grant 60574084, the National 863 Project of China under Grant 2006AA04Z428, and the National 973 Program of China under Grant 2002CB312200
Recursive filtering for a class of nonlinear systems with missing measurements
This paper is concerned with the finite-horizon recursive filtering problem for a class of nonlinear time-varying systems with missing measurements. The missing measurements are modeled by a series of mutually independent random variables obeying Bernoulli distributions with possibly different occurrence probabilities. Attention is focused on the design of a recursive filter such that, for the missing measurements, an upper bound for the filtering error covariance is guaranteed and such an upper bound is subsequently minimized by properly designing the filter parameters at each sampling instant. The desired filter parameters are obtained by solving two Riccati-like difference equations that are of a recursive form suitable for online applications. A simulation example is exploited to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed filter design scheme. © 2012 IEEE.published_or_final_versio
Decentralized H
For large-scale systems which are modeled as interconnection of N networked control systems with uncertain missing measurements probabilities, a decentralized state feedback H∞ controller design is considered in this paper. The occurrence of missing measurements is assumed to be a Bernoulli random binary switching sequence with an unknown conditional probability distribution in an interval. A state feedback H∞ controller is designed in terms of linear matrix inequalities to make closed-loop system exponentially mean square stable and a prescribed H∞ performance is guaranteed. Sufficient conditions are derived for the existence of such controller. A numerical example is also provided to demonstrate the validity of the proposed design approach
