Abstract: | A bank of recursive least-squares (RLS) estimators is proposed for the estimation of the uncertainty intervals of the parameters of an equation error model (or RLS model) where the equation error is assumed to lie between known upper and lower bounds. It is shown that the off-line least-squares method gives the maximum and minimum parameter values that could have produced the recorded input-output sequence. By modifying the RLS estimator in two ways, it is possible to recursively compute inner and outer bounds of the uncertainty intergals. It is shown that the inner bound is asymptotically tight. |
