RECURSIVE IDENTIFICATION AND TRACKING OF PARAMETERS FOR LINEAR AND NONLINEAR MULTIVARIABLE SYSTEMS

摘要

The problem of identifying constant and variable parameters in multi input, multi-output, linear and nonlinear systems is considered, using the maximum likelihood approach. An iterative algorithm, leading to recursive identification and tracking of the unknown parameters and the noise covariance matrix, is developed. Agile tracking and accurate and unbiased identified parameters are obtained. Necessary conditions for a globally, asymptotically stable identification process are provided;the conditions proved to be useful and efficient. Among different cases studied, the stability derivatives of an aircraft were identified and some of the results are shown as examples.
