Distributed two‐stage state estimation with event‐triggered strategy for multirate sensor networks

This paper investigates the state estimation issue for a class of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) with the consideration of limited energy resources. First, a multirate estimation model is established, and then, a new event‐triggered two‐stage information fusion algorithm is developed based on the optimal fusion criterion weighted by matrices. Compared with the existing methods, the presented fusion algorithm can significantly reduce the communication cost in WSNs and save energy resources of sensors efficiently. Furthermore, by presetting a desired containment probability over the interval [0,1] with the developed event‐triggered mechanism, one can obtain a suitable compromise between the communication cost and the estimation accuracy. Finally, a numerical simulation for the WSN tracking system is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

A double laser filtering approach to vibration noise rejection for hot-rolled strip flatness measurement

This paper proposes a new filtering method based on the Kalman filtering algorithm for hot-rolled strip flatness measurement system. The system involves processing slowly changing signal, which can be considered as a bounded random process, and its model parameters are completely unknown. The noise rejection strategy in double lasers can generate a compensation signal. Since the initial and accumulative error would lead to negative filter effect or even cause divergence, Kalman filter is integrated to effectively deal with the initial error and enhance convergence. In this setting, the noise rejection strategy is used as a prediction model to constitute a similar Kalman filter. The correlated error caused by measurement error is coped with by a compensation model based on the feature of correlated error to enhance the filter effect. Both theoretical analysis and simulations show that the new algorithm has a better filter effect than the traditional Kalman filtering algorithm for the system.     

Performance degradation prediction of proton exchange membrane fuel cell using a hybrid prognostic approach

The proton exchange membrane fuel cell has been widely used for industrial systems; however, its performance gradually degrades during use. Therefore, the study on the performance degradation prediction of fuel cells is helpful to extend its lifespan. In this paper, a novel hybrid approach using a combination of model-based adaptive Kalman filter and data-driven NARX neural network is proposed to predict the degradation of fuel cells. The overall degradation trend (i.e., irreversible degradation process) is captured by an empirical aging model and adaptive Kalman filter. Meanwhile, the detail degradation information (i.e., reversible degradation process) is depicted by the NARX neural network. Moreover, the correlation analysis of the reversible voltage time series is carried out to obtain the number of delays of the NARX neural network based on the autocorrelation function and the partial autocorrelation function. Then, the total degradation prediction is the sum of the overall degradation prediction and the detail degradation prediction. Finally, the prognostic capability of the proposed method is verified by two aging datasets, and the results show the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method which can provide accurate degradation forecasting and remaining useful life.     

Decreasing Filter Cake Resistance by Using Packing Structures

Packed beds used in absorption columns are evaluated to determine whether they can also be beneficial for cake‐forming filtrations. To assess this, model systems are characterized and separated by using a dead‐end filter cell. Filtrations are conducted with different packings; the filtrate amount over time and resulting turbidity are evaluated. Packings increase the filter cake resistance and the separation time of the cakes formed with approximately incompressible solids. However, they exhibit a positive effect on the filtration of a more complex, compressible substance; the process is not only accelerated, but also the quality of the obtained filtrate is not compromised. These results demonstrate potential in the use of packed beds for the filtration of complex biogenic suspensions.     

Interface reactions between rutile coatings and molten aluminium or AlSi7Mg0.6 alloy

Rutile coatings deposited on corundum substrates are considered as promising functional elements improving the efficiency of the filtration of oxide inclusions out of aluminium melts. This contribution describes the reactions between rutile and two kinds of the aluminium melts and discusses the consequences of these reactions for the filtration process. It was found that the contact of rutile coatings with molten aluminium leads to the formation of a corundum layer at the solid/liquid interface. The exposure of the rutile coatings to molten AlSi7Mg0.6 alloy produces an interface layer of MgTiO₃. The interface layers possess defined orientation relationship to rutile which is characteristic for locally heteroepitaxial growth. The density functional theory calculations revealed that the TiO₂/α-Al₂O₃ and TiO₂/MgTiO₃ interfaces with the orientation relationships observed experimentally have low interface energies. The mechanisms of the interface layer formation and the impact of these layers on the degradation of the rutile coatings are discussed.     

Complementary Kalman Filter as a Baseline Vector Estimator for GPS-Based Attitude Determination

The Global Positioning System (GPS) offers the interferometer for attitude determination by processing the carrier phase observables. By using carrier phase observables, the relative positioning is obtained in centimeter level. GPS interferometry has been firstly used in precise static relative positioning, and thereafter in kinematic positioning. The carrier phase differential GPS based on interferometer principles can solve for the antenna baseline vector, defined as the vector between the antenna designated master and one of the slave antennas, connected to a rigid body. Determining the unknown baseline vectors between the antennas sits at the heart of GPS-based attitude determination. The conventional solution of the baseline vectors based on least-squares approach is inherently noisy, which results in the noisy attitude solutions. In this article, the complementary Kalman filter (CKF) is employed for solving the baseline vector in the attitude determination mechanism to improve the performance, where the receiversatellite double differenced observable was utilized as the measurement. By using the carrier phase observables, the relative positioning is obtained in centimeter level. Employing the CKF provides several advantages, such as accuracy improvement, reliability enhancement, and real-time assurance. Simulation results based on the conventional method where the least-squares approach is involved, and the proposed method where the CKF is involved are compared and discussed.     

A derivative UKF for tightly coupled INS/GPS integrated navigation

The tightly coupled INS/GPS integration introduces nonlinearity to the measurement equation of the Kalman filter due to the use of raw GPS pseudorange measurements. The extended Kalman filter (EKF) is a typical method to address the nonlinearity by linearizing the pseudorange measurements. However, the linearization may cause large modeling error or even degraded navigation solution. To solve this problem, this paper constructs a nonlinear measurement equation by including the second-order term in the Taylor series of the pseudorange measurements. Nevertheless, when using the unscented Kalman filter (UKF) to the INS/GPS integration for navigation estimation, it causes a great amount of redundant computation in the prediction process due to the linear feature of system state equation, especially for the case with system state vector in much higher dimension than measurement vector. To overcome this drawback in computational burden, this paper further develops a derivative UKF based on the constructed nonlinear measurement equation. The derivative UKF adopts the concise form of the original Kalman filter (KF) to the prediction process and employs the unscented transformation technique to the update process. Theoretical analysis and simulation results demonstrate that the derivative UKF can achieve higher accuracy with a much smaller computational cost in comparison with the traditional UKF.
