چکیده
Abstract—This article is about first step of structural health monitoring by identifying structural system in the presence of unknown input. In the structural system identification, identification of structural parameters such as stiffness and damping are considered. In this study, the Kalman filter (KF) design for structural systems with unknown excitation is expressed. External excitations, such as earthquakes, wind or any other forces are not measured or not available. The purpose of this filter is its strengths to estimate the state variables of the system in the presence of unknown input. Also least squares estimation (LSE) method with unknown input is studied. Estimates of parameters have been adopted. Finally, using two examples advantages and drawbacks of both methods are studied.

The Particle Filter and Extended Kalman Filter methods for the structural system identification considering various uncertainties
Structural system identification using recursive methods has been a research direction of increasing interest in recent decades. The two prominent methods, including the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) and the Particle Filter (PF), also known as the Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC), are advantageous in this field. In this study, the system identification of a shake table test of a 4-story steel struct...
متن کاملA general extended Kalman filter for simultaneous estimation of system and unknown inputs
The traditional Extended Kalman filter (EKF) is a useful tool for structural parameter identification with limited observations. It is, however, not applicable when the excitations on the structure are unknown or the excitation locations are not monitored. A novel Extended Kalman filter approach referred to as the General Extended Kalman filter with unknown inputs (GEKF-UI) is proposed to estim...
متن کاملIdentification of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Dynamic Using Extended Kalman Filter with ARMA Noise Model
In the procedure of designing an underwater vehicle or robot, its maneuverability and controllability must be simulated and tested, before the product is finalized for manufacturing. Since the hydrodynamic forces and moments highly affect the dynamic and maneuverability of the system, they must be estimated with a reasonable accuracy. In this study, hydrodynamic coefficients of an autonomous un...
متن کاملTime Delay and Data Dropout Compensation in Networked Control Systems Using Extended Kalman Filter
In networked control systems, time delay and data dropout can degrade the performance of the control system and even destabilize the system. In the present paper, the Extended Kalman filter is employed to compensate the effects of time delay and data dropout in feedforward and feedback paths of networked control systems. In the proposed method, the extended Kalman filter is used as an observer ...

The estimation of situation in a combinational navigation GPS/INS with least number of satellites is the main purpose of this paper. As inertial measurement unit uses altimeter for height measurement, we can assume which height poses certain amounts, whereas geographical length and width are unknown to us in this paper. The single difference GPS is employed for updating the inertial navigation ...
