Computational Aspects of Continuous-Discrete Extended Kalman-Filtering
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper elaborates how the time update of the continuous-discrete extended Kalman-Filter (EKF) can be computed in the most efficient way. The specific structure of the EKF-moment differential equations leads to a new Taylor-Heun-approximation of the nonlinear vector field. Furthermore, the order of consistency and stability behavior of the outlined procedure is investigated. The results are incorporated into an algorithm with adaptive controlled step size, assuring a fixed numerical precision with minimal computational effort. Additionally, the upper bound of the step size is monitored continuously in order to guarantee positive semidefiniteness of the state error covariance matrix.

On-Line Nonlinear Dynamic Data Reconciliation Using Extended Kalman Filtering: Application to a Distillation Column and a CSTR
Extended Kalman Filtering (EKF) is a nonlinear dynamic data reconciliation (NDDR) method. One of its main advantages is its suitability for on-line applications. This paper presents an on-line NDDR method using EKF. It is implemented for two case studies, temperature measurements of a distillation column and concentration measurements of a CSTR. In each time step, random numbers with zero m...

This paper elaborates a new version of extended Kalman filtering (EKF) for state estimation in chemical nonlinear continuous-discrete stochastic systems. Such a state estimation always compounds real measurements of some system's variables (depending on the utilized technology) with computation of remaining (not measurable) parameters by means of appropriate filtering algorithms. Here, we consi...

Continuous time models with sampled data possess several advantages over conventional time series and panel models (special issue 62:1, 2008, of Statistica Neerlandica). For example, data with unequal time intervals can be treated efficiently, since the dynamic model parameters of the system model are not affected by the measurement process. In the linear case, the nonlinear parameter restricti...
