Robust H∞ filtering for markovian jump systems with randomly occurring nonlinearities and sensor saturation: The finite-horizon case
This article is posted with the permission of IEEE - Copyright @ 2011 IEEEThis paper addresses the robust H∞ filtering problem for a class of discrete time-varying Markovian jump systems with randomly occurring nonlinearities and sensor saturation. Two kinds of transition probability matrices for the Markovian process are considered, namely, the one with polytopic uncertainties and the one with partially unknown entries. The nonlinear disturbances are assumed to occur randomly according to stochastic variables satisfying the Bernoulli distributions. The main purpose of this paper is to design a robust filter, over a given finite-horizon, such that the H∞ disturbance attenuation level is guaranteed for the time-varying Markovian jump systems in the presence of both the randomly occurring nonlinearities and the sensor saturation. Sufficient conditions are established for the existence of the desired filter satisfying the H∞ performance constraint in terms of a set of recursive linear matrix inequalities. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed filter design scheme.This work was supported in part by the National Natural Science Foundation

Compressed Sensing of Analog Signals in Shift-Invariant Spaces
A traditional assumption underlying most data converters is that the signal
should be sampled at a rate exceeding twice the highest frequency. This
statement is based on a worst-case scenario in which the signal occupies the
entire available bandwidth. In practice, many signals are sparse so that only
part of the bandwidth is used. In this paper, we develop methods for low-rate
sampling of continuous-time sparse signals in shift-invariant (SI) spaces,
generated by m kernels with period T. We model sparsity by treating the case in
which only k out of the m generators are active, however, we do not know which
k are chosen. We show how to sample such signals at a rate much lower than m/T,
which is the minimal sampling rate without exploiting sparsity. Our approach
combines ideas from analog sampling in a subspace with a recently developed
block diagram that converts an infinite set of sparse equations to a finite
counterpart. Using these two components we formulate our problem within the
framework of finite compressed sensing (CS) and then rely on algorithms
developed in that context. The distinguishing feature of our results is that in
contrast to standard CS, which treats finite-length vectors, we consider
sampling of analog signals for which no underlying finite-dimensional model
exists. The proposed framework allows to extend much of the recent literature
on CS to the analog domain.Comment: to appear in IEEE Trans. on Signal Processin
Uncertainty Relations for Shift-Invariant Analog Signals
The past several years have witnessed a surge of research investigating
various aspects of sparse representations and compressed sensing. Most of this
work has focused on the finite-dimensional setting in which the goal is to
decompose a finite-length vector into a given finite dictionary. Underlying
many of these results is the conceptual notion of an uncertainty principle: a
signal cannot be sparsely represented in two different bases. Here, we extend
these ideas and results to the analog, infinite-dimensional setting by
considering signals that lie in a finitely-generated shift-invariant (SI)
space. This class of signals is rich enough to include many interesting special
cases such as multiband signals and splines. By adapting the notion of
coherence defined for finite dictionaries to infinite SI representations, we
develop an uncertainty principle similar in spirit to its finite counterpart.
We demonstrate tightness of our bound by considering a bandlimited lowpass
train that achieves the uncertainty principle. Building upon these results and
similar work in the finite setting, we show how to find a sparse decomposition
in an overcomplete dictionary by solving a convex optimization problem. The
distinguishing feature of our approach is the fact that even though the problem
is defined over an infinite domain with infinitely many variables and
constraints, under certain conditions on the dictionary spectrum our algorithm
can find the sparsest representation by solving a finite-dimensional problem.Comment: Accepted to IEEE Trans. on Inform. Theor

The parameter uncertainties are allowed to be norm-bounded and enter into the state matrix. The system measurements may be unavailable (i.e., missing data) at any sample time, and the probability of the occurrence of missing data is assumed to be known. The purpose of this problem is to design an output feedback controller such that, for all admissible parameter uncertainties and all possible incomplete observations, the system state of the closed-loop system is mean square bounded, and the steady-state variance of each state is not more than the individual prescribed upper bound. We show that the addressed problem can be solved by means of algebraic matrix inequalities. The explicit expression of the desired robust controllers is derived in terms of some free parameters, which may be exploited to achieve further performance requirements. An illustrative numerical example is provided to demonstrate the usefulness and flexibility of the proposed design approach

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
Noise Folding in Compressed Sensing
The literature on compressed sensing has focused almost entirely on settings
where the signal is noiseless and the measurements are contaminated by noise.
In practice, however, the signal itself is often subject to random noise prior
to measurement. We briefly study this setting and show that, for the vast
majority of measurement schemes employed in compressed sensing, the two models
are equivalent with the important difference that the signal-to-noise ratio is
divided by a factor proportional to p/n, where p is the dimension of the signal
and n is the number of observations. Since p/n is often large, this leads to
noise folding which can have a severe impact on the SNR
Data management of on-line partial discharge monitoring using wireless sensor nodes integrated with a multi-agent system
On-line partial discharge monitoring has been the subject of significant research in previous years but little work has been carried out with regard to the management of on-site data. To date, on-line partial discharge monitoring within a substation has only been concerned with single plant items, so the data management problem has been minimal. As the age of plant equipment increases, so does the need for condition monitoring to ensure maximum lifespan. This paper presents an approach to the management of partial discharge data through the use of embedded monitoring techniques running on wireless sensor nodes. This method is illustrated by a case study on partial discharge monitoring data from an ageing HVDC reactor
Partially Linear Estimation with Application to Sparse Signal Recovery From Measurement Pairs
We address the problem of estimating a random vector X from two sets of
measurements Y and Z, such that the estimator is linear in Y. We show that the
partially linear minimum mean squared error (PLMMSE) estimator does not require
knowing the joint distribution of X and Y in full, but rather only its
second-order moments. This renders it of potential interest in various
applications. We further show that the PLMMSE method is minimax-optimal among
all estimators that solely depend on the second-order statistics of X and Y. We
demonstrate our approach in the context of recovering a signal, which is sparse
in a unitary dictionary, from noisy observations of it and of a filtered
version of it. We show that in this setting PLMMSE estimation has a clear
computational advantage, while its performance is comparable to
state-of-the-art algorithms. We apply our approach both in static and dynamic
estimation applications. In the former category, we treat the problem of image
enhancement from blurred/noisy image pairs, where we show that PLMMSE
estimation performs only slightly worse than state-of-the art algorithms, while
running an order of magnitude faster. In the dynamic setting, we provide a
recursive implementation of the estimator and demonstrate its utility in the
context of tracking maneuvering targets from position and acceleration
measurements.Comment: 13 pages, 5 figure
Four-Group Decodable Space-Time Block Codes
Two new rate-one full-diversity space-time block codes (STBC) are proposed.
They are characterized by the \emph{lowest decoding complexity} among the known
rate-one STBC, arising due to the complete separability of the transmitted
symbols into four groups for maximum likelihood detection. The first and the
second codes are delay-optimal if the number of transmit antennas is a power of
2 and even, respectively. The exact pair-wise error probability is derived to
allow for the performance optimization of the two codes. Compared with existing
low-decoding complexity STBC, the two new codes offer several advantages such
as higher code rate, lower encoding/decoding delay and complexity, lower
peak-to-average power ratio, and better performance.Comment: 1 figure. Accepted for publication in IEEE Trans. on Signal

Robust Reduced-Rank Adaptive Processing Based on Parallel Subgradient Projection and Krylov Subspace Techniques
In this paper, we propose a novel reduced-rank adaptive filtering algorithm
by blending the idea of the Krylov subspace methods with the set-theoretic
adaptive filtering framework. Unlike the existing Krylov-subspace-based
reduced-rank methods, the proposed algorithm tracks the optimal point in the
sense of minimizing the \sinq{true} mean square error (MSE) in the Krylov
subspace, even when the estimated statistics become erroneous (e.g., due to
sudden changes of environments). Therefore, compared with those existing
methods, the proposed algorithm is more suited to adaptive filtering
applications. The algorithm is analyzed based on a modified version of the
adaptive projected subgradient method (APSM). Numerical examples demonstrate
that the proposed algorithm enjoys better tracking performance than the
existing methods for the interference suppression problem in code-division
multiple-access (CDMA) systems as well as for simple system identification
problems.Comment: 10 figures. In IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, 201
