Parameter bounds evaluation of Wiener models with noninvertible polynomial nonlinearities

In this paper a three stage procedure is presented for deriving parameters bounds of SISOWiener models when the nonlinear block is modeled by a possibly noninvertible polynomial and the output measurement errors are bounded. First, using steady-state input–output data, parameters of the nonlinear part are bounded by a tight orthotope. Then, given the estimated uncertain nonlinearity and the output measurements collected exciting the system with an input dynamic signal, bounds on the unmeasurable inner signal are computed. Finally, such bounds, together with noisy output measurements, are used for bounding the parameters of the linear block. 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
