Modular Subspace-Based System Identification From Multi-Setup Measurements

摘要

Subspace identification algorithms are efficient for output-only eigenstructure identification of linear MIMO systems. The problem of merging sensor data obtained from moving and nonsimultaneously recorded measurement setups under varying excitation is considered. To address the problem of dimension explosion, when retrieving the system matrices of the complete system, a modular and scalable approach is proposed. Adapted to a large class of subspace methods, observability matrices are normalized and merged to retrieve global system matrices.
