Identification of LPV Models with Non-uniformly Spaced Operating Points by Using Asymmetric Gaussian Weights

In this paper, asymmetric Gaussian weighting functions are introduced for the identification of linear parameter varying systems by utilizing an input-output multi-model structure. It is not required to select operating points with uniform spacing andmore flexibility is achieved. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach, severalweighting functions, including linear, Gaussian and asymmetric Gaussianweighting functions, are evaluated and compared. It is demonstrated through simulations with a continuous stirred tank reactor model that the proposed approach provides more satisfactory approximation.
