Machine-implemented method for obtaining data from a nonlinear dynamic real system during a test run

摘要

A method for obtaining data from a nonlinear dynamic real system during a test run, for instance an internal combustion engine, a drivetrain, or parts thereof, a sequence of dynamic excitation signals is generated according to an initial design and a system output is measured. To enable the quick and precise generation of experimental designs for global measurement, modeling, and optimization of a nonlinear dynamic real system, a sequence of dynamic excitation signals was generated by generating a design with a sequence of excitation signals, obtaining output data by feeding said sequence into a model for the real system, determining a criterion for the information content of the complete design of experiment sequence, varying the sequence, obtaining new output data by feeding said modified sequence into the model, determining again said criterion, iterating until said criterion improves, and using the improved sequence of excitation signals for the real system.
