Covariance-based fusion filtering for networked systems with random transmission delays and non-consecutive losses

The distributed and centralized fusion filtering problems for multi-sensor networked systems with transmission random one-step delays and non-consecutive packet losses are addressed. The signal evolution model is not required, as only covariance information is used. The measurements of individual sensors, subject to uncertainties modeled by random matrices and correlated noises, are transmitted to local processors through different communication channels and, due to random transmission failures, some of the data packets may be delayed or even definitely lost. The random transmission delays and non-consecutive packet losses are modeled by sequences of Bernoulli variables with different probabilities. By an innovation approach, local least squares linear filtering estimators are obtained by recursive algorithms; the distributed fusion framework is then used to obtain the optimal matrix-weighted combination of the local filters, using the mean squared error as optimality criterion. Also, a recursive least squares linear estimation algorithm is designed within the centralized fusion framework.

Multi-sensor distributed fusion filtering for networked systems with different delay and loss rates

This paper mainly focuses on the multi-sensor distributed fusion estimation problem for networked systems with time delays and packet losses. Measurements of individual sensors are transmitted to local processors over different communication channels with different random delay and packet loss rates. Several groups of Bernoulli distributed random variables are employed to depict the phenomena of different time delays and packet losses. Based on received measurements of individual sensors, local processors produce local estimates that have been developed in a new recent literature. Then local estimates are transmitted to the fusion center over a perfect connection, where a distributed fusion filter is obtained by using the well-known matrix-weighted fusion estimation algorithm in the linear minimum variance sense. The filtering error cross-covariance matrices between any two local filters are derived. The steady-state property of the proposed distributed fusion filter is analyzed. A simulation example verifies the effectiveness of the algorithm.     

Robust fusion steady‐state filtering for multisensor networked systems with one‐step random delay,missing measurements,and uncertain‐variance multiplicative and additive white noises

The robust fusion steady‐state filtering problem is investigated for a class of multisensor networked systems with mixed uncertainties including multiplicative noises, one‐step random delay, missing measurements, and uncertain noise variances, the phenomena of one‐step random delay and missing measurements occur in a random way, and are described by two Bernoulli distributed random variables with known conditional probabilities. Using a model transformation approach, which consists of augmented approach, derandomization approach, and fictitious noise approach, the original multisensor system under study is converted into a multimodel multisensor system with only uncertain noise variances. According to the minimax robust estimation principle, based on the worst‐case subsystems with conservative upper bounds of uncertain noise variances, the robust local steady‐state Kalman estimators (predictor, filter, and smoother) are presented in a unified framework. Applying the optimal fusion algorithm weighted by matrices, the robust distributed weighted state fusion steady‐state Kalman estimators are derived for the considered system. In addition, by using the proposed model transformation approach, the centralized fusion system is obtained, furthermore the robust centralized fusion steady‐state Kalman estimators are proposed. The robustness of the proposed estimators is proved by using a combination method consisting of augmented noise approach, decomposition approach of nonnegative definite matrix, matrix representation approach of quadratic form, and Lyapunov equation approach, such that for all admissible uncertainties, the actual steady‐state estimation error variances of the estimators are guaranteed to have the corresponding minimal upper bounds. The accuracy relations among the robust local and fused steady‐state Kalman estimators are proved. An example with application to autoregressive signal processing is proposed, which shows that the robust local and fusion signal estimation problems can be solved by the state estimation problems. Simulation example verifies the effectiveness and correctness of the proposed results.

Minimum variance estimation for linear uncertain systems with one-step correlated noises and incomplete measurements

This paper deals with state estimation problem for linear uncertain systems with correlated noises and incomplete measurements. Multiplicative noises enter into state and measurement equations to account for the stochastic uncertainties. And one-step autocorrelated and cross-correlated process noises and measurement noises are taken into consideration. Using the latest received measurement to compensate lost packets, the modified multi-step random delays and packet dropout model is adopted in the present paper. By augmenting system states, measurements and new defined variables, the original system is transformed into the stochastic parameter one. On this basis, the optimal linear estimators in the minimum variance sense are designed via projection theory. They depend on the variances of multiplicative noises, the one-step correlation coefficient matrices together with the probabilities of delays and packet losses. The sufficient condition on the existence of steady-state estimators is then given. Finally, simulation results illustrate the performance of the developed algorithms.     

Multi-sensor information fusion estimators for stochastic uncertain systems with correlated noises

The information fusion estimation problems are investigated for multi-sensor stochastic uncertain systems with correlated noises. The stochastic uncertainties caused by correlated multiplicative noises exist in the state and observation matrices. The process noise and the observation noises are one-step auto-correlated and two-step cross-correlated, respectively. While the observation noises of different sensors are one-step cross-correlated. The optimal centralized fusion filter, predictor and smoother are proposed in the linear minimum variance sense via an innovative analysis approach. To enhance the robustness and flexibility, a distributed fusion filter is put forward, which requires the calculation of filtering error cross-covariance matrices between any two local filters. To avoid the calculation of cross-covariance matrices, another distributed fusion filter is also presented by using the covariance intersection (CI) fusion algorithm, which can reduce the computational cost. A simulation example is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.     

Robust nonlinear filter for nonlinear systems with multiplicative noise uncertainties,unknown external disturbances,and packet dropouts

This study is concerned with the robust nonlinear filtering problem for nonlinear discrete‐time stochastic system with multiplicative noise uncertainties, unknown external disturbances, and packet dropouts. The focus of this paper is to design a filter with predictor–corrector structure such that the upper bound on the state estimation error variance is minimized in the presence of multiplicative noise, unknown external disturbances, and packet dropouts. Thus, a robust nonlinear filter based on the method to obtain the upper bound on variances of multiplicative noises, unknown disturbances, and packet dropouts is designed. Further stability analysis shows that the proposed filter has robustness against multiplicative noises, unknown external disturbances, and packet dropouts. Simulation results show that the proposed filter is more effective than extended Kalman filter and other robust extended Kalman filter. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
