Best Choice of Coordinate System for TrackingCoordinated

چکیده

A standard approach to tracking is to use the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) applied to a non-linear state-space model. We will compare two conceivable choices of state variables for modeling civil aircrafts. One where Cartesian velocities are used and one where absolute velocity and heading angle are used. In both choices, Cartesian coordinates are used for position and angular velocity for turning. It will be shown that the latter state vector always performs better. This is proven by considering the linearization error made in the Extended Kalman lter applied either to a time-continuous model or a discretized model. The result is supported by a Monte Carlo simulation study.

A redundancy allocation problem with the choice of redundancy strategies by a memetic algorithm

This paper proposes an efficient algorithm based on memetic algorithm (MA) for a redundancy allocation problem without component mixing (RAPCM) in a series-parallel system when the redundancy strategy can be chosen for individual subsystems. Majority of the solution methods for the general RAPCM assume that the type of a redundancy strategy for each subsystem is pre-determined and known a prior...

Reliability Optimization for Complicated Systems with a Choice of Redundancy Strategies (TECHNICAL NOTE)

Redundancy allocation is one of the common techniques to increase the reliability of the bridge systems. Many studies on the general redundancy allocation problems assume that the redundancy strategy for each subsystem is predetermined and fixed. In general, active redundancy has received more attention in the past. However, in real world, a particular system design contains both active and col...

Thermal Development for Ducts of Arbitrary Cross Sections by Boundary-Fitted Coordinate Transformation Method

The non-orthogonal boundary-fitted coordinate transformation method is applied to the solution of steady three-dimensional momentum and energy equations in laminar flow to obtain temperature field and Nusselt numbers in the thermal entry region of straight ducts of different cross sectional geometries. The conservation equations originally written in Cartesian coordinates are parabolized in the...

Comparative Analysis of Wavelet-based Feature Extraction for Intramuscular EMG Signal Decomposition

Background: Electromyographic (EMG) signal decomposition is the process by which an EMG signal is decomposed into its constituent motor unit potential trains (MUPTs). A major step in EMG decomposition is feature extraction in which each detected motor unit potential (MUP) is represented by a feature vector. As with any other pattern recognition system, feature extraction has a significant impac...
