In this paper, the application of the fuzzy interacting multiple model unscented Kalman filter (FUZZY-IMMUKF) approach to integrated navigation processing for the maneuvering vehicle is presented. The unscented Kalman filter (UKF) employs a set of sigma points through deterministic sampling, such that a linearization process is not necessary, and therefore the errors caused by linearization as ...

To many geographic systems (GIS) application scheme such as urban planning and navigation, updating road network database is critical problem. Rapidly changing urban environments accelerate the need for frequent updates or revisions of road network databases. With the advent of high-resolution satellite images, there has been a resurgence of research interest in road extraction techniques. Howe...

State-of-charge (SOC) estimation of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is the basis other state estimations. However, its accuracy can be affected by many factors, such as temperature and ageing. To handle this bottleneck issue, we here propose a joint SOC-SOH method considering influence temperature. It combines Forgetting Factor Recursive Least Squares (FFRLS) algorithm, Total (TLS) Unscented Kalma...

Accurate state estimation of large-scale lithiumion battery packs is necessary for the advanced control of batteries, which could potentially increase their lifetime through e.g. reconfiguration. To tackle this problem, an enhanced reduced-order electrochemical model is used here. This model allows considering a wider operating range and thermal coupling between cells, the latter turning out to...

In this book, the extended Kalman filter (EKF) has been used as the standard technique for performing recursive nonlinear estimation. The EKF algorithm, however, provides only an approximation to optimal nonlinear estimation. In this chapter, we point out the underlying assumptions and flaws in the EKF, and present an alternative filter with performance superior to that of the EKF. This algorit...

This paper proposes a composite local path planning method for multi-robot formation navigation with path deviation prevention using a repulsive function, A-star algorithm, and unscented Kalman filter (UKF). The repulsive function in the potential field method is used to avoid collisions among robots and obstacles. The A-star algorithm helps the robots to find an optimal local path. In addition...

In the past several decades, methodologies used to estimate nonlinear relationships among latent variables have been developed almost exclusively to fit cross-sectional models. We present a relatively new estimation approach, the unscented Kalman filter (UKF), and illustrate its potential as a tool for fitting nonlinear dynamic models in two ways: (1) as a building block for approximating the l...

An arithmetic of fast two-position initial alignment for Strapdown Inertial Navigation System (SINS) using Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) is proposed in this paper to solve the initial alignment problems of SINS. Based on the analysis of initial alignment method of SINS, the nonlinear model for two-position attitude calculation is derived, and the two-position method is used to eliminate the con...

An improved state estimation technique for bioprocess control applications is proposed where a hybrid version of the Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) is employed. The underlying dynamic system model is formulated as a conventional system of ordinary differential equations based on the mass balances of the state variables biomass, substrate, and product, while the observation model, describing the ...

A novel adaptive unscented Kalman filter (AUKF) based estimation algorithm is proposed for a 3U Cubsat. This small satellite employs a three axis magnetometer and three MEMS gyroscopes as well as three magnetic torque rods and one reaction wheel on the pitch axis. Unlike the existing UKF, in this paper, an n+1 sigma set is used to estimate the nanosatellite attitude instead of 2n + 1 sigma poin...
