Systems and methods for initializing dynamic model states using a Kalman filter

摘要

Embodiments of the invention can provide systems and methods for initializing dynamic model states using a Kalman or similar type filter. In one embodiment, a system for controlling a gas turbine engine is provided. The system can include at least one sensor adapted to obtain dynamic-type information about a current state of the engine. The system can also include an engine model adapted to receive information from the sensor, and further adapted to reflect the current state of the engine. Furthermore, the system can include a model filter adapted to initialize the engine model with at least a portion of the dynamic-type information, wherein at least one value based at least in part on the filtered dynamic-type information is input to the engine model to determine an engine control action.
