A broad class of nonlinear systems and filters can be modeled by the Volterra series representation. However, its practical use in nonlinear system identification is sometimes limited due to the large number of parameters associated with the Volterra filter’s structure. The parametric complexity also complicates design procedures based upon such a model. This limitation for system identificatio...

Accelerometers are applied to various applications to collect information about movements of other sensors deployed at diverse fields ranging from underwater area to human body. In this study, we try to characterize the nonlinear relationship between motion artifact and acceleration data. The cross bicoherence test and the Volterra filter are used as the approaches to detection and modeling. We...

In this work we are concerned with the numerical solution of a nonlinear weakly singular Volterra integral equation with a nonsmooth solution. We investigate the application of product integration methods and a detailed analysis of the Trapezoidal method is given. In order to improve the numerical results we consider extrapolation procedures and collocation methods based on graded meshes. Sever...

The adaptive Volterra filter has been successfully applied in nonlinear acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) systems and nonlinear line echo cancellation systems, but its applications are limited by its required computational complexity and slow convergence rate, especially for systems with long memory length. In this paper, we first apply a more general nonlinear filter, the function expansion non...

Lotka-Volterra population biology models are important models that describe the interaction between various biological species considered as predator-prey system. This work describes a Lotka-Volterra population biology model with negative feedback. We show that for this biological model, the predator and prey species have stable coexistence. Then we shall propose ecological monitoring of the po...

Several nonlinear adaptive techniques have been proposed for modelling nonlinear channels with memory. These techniques include Volterra series, wavelet networks, neural networks, etc. See [11, 6] for a review. For example, adaptive Volterra series have been applied in [1] for modelling digital satellite channels. These Volterra models do not characterize each element of the channel. They provi...

In this paper, Solvability nonlinear Volterra integral equations with general vanishing delays is stated. So far sinc methods for approximating the solutions of Volterra integral equations have received considerable attention mainly due to their high accuracy. These approximations converge rapidly to the exact solutions as number sinc points increases. Here the numerical solution of nonlinear d...

For a weakly nonlinear oscillator, the frequency domain Volterra kernels, often called the generalised frequency response functions, can provide accurate analysis of the response in terms of amplitudes and frequencies, in a transparent algebraic way. However a Volterra series representation based analysis will become void for nonlinear oscillators that exhibit subharmonics, and the problem of f...

in this paper the fixed point theorem of schauder is used to prove the existence of a continuous solution of the nonlinear fuzzy volterra integral equations. then using some conditions the uniqueness of the solution is investigated.

in this paper, a nonlinear inverse problem of parabolic type, is considered. by reducing this inverse problem to a system of volterra integral equations the existence, uniqueness, and stability of the solution will be shown.
