Distributed Sparse Signal Estimation in Sensor Networks Using H∞-Consensus Filtering

摘要

This paper is concerned with the sparse signal recovery problem in sensor networks, and the main purpose is to design a filter for each sensor node to estimate a sparse signal sequence using the measurements distributed over the whole network.A so-called?1-regularized H∞filter is established at first by introducing a pseudo-measurement equation, and the necessary and sufficient condition for existence of this filter is derived by means of Krein space Kalman filtering. By embedding a high-pass consensus filter into ?1-regularized H∞filter in information form, a distributed filtering algorithm is developed, which ensures that all node filters can reach a consensus on the estimates of sparse signals asymptotically and satisfy the prescribed H∞performance constraint. Finally, a numerical example is provided to demonstrate effectiveness and applicability of the proposed method.
