An unscented Kalman filter method for real time input-parameter-state estimation

robotics › navigation
📄 Abstract

Abstract: The input-parameter-state estimation capabilities of a novel unscented Kalman filter is examined herein on both linear and nonlinear systems. The unknown input is estimated in two stages within each time step. Firstly, the predicted dynamic states and the system parameters provide an estimation of the input. Secondly, the corrected with measurements states and parameters provide a final estimation. Importantly, it is demonstrated using the perturbation analysis that, a system with at least a zero or a non-zero known input can potentially be uniquely identified. This output-only methodology allows for a better understanding of the system compared to classical output-only parameter identification strategies, given that all the dynamic states, the parameters, and the input are estimated jointly and in real-time.

Key Contributions

Presents a novel Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) method for real-time, output-only estimation of unknown inputs, system parameters, and dynamic states. It demonstrates that systems with known or unknown inputs can be uniquely identified through a two-stage estimation process within each time step.

Business Value

Improves the ability to monitor, control, and diagnose complex systems in real-time, leading to enhanced performance, safety, and predictive maintenance in various engineering applications.
