The focus of this paper is Bayesian state and parameter estimation using nonlinear models. A recently developed method, the particle filter, is studied that is based on stochastic simulation. Unlike the well-known extended Kalman filter, the particle filter is applicable to highly nonlinear models with non-Gaussian uncertainties. Recently developed techniques that improve the convergence of the...

Control of a class of uncertain nonlinear systems, which estimates unavailable state variables, is considered. A new approach for robust tracking control problem of satellite for large rotational maneuvers is presented in this paper. The features of this approach include a strong algorithm to estimate attitude, based on discrete extended Kalman filter combined with a continuous extended Kalman ...

imated nonlinear filter banks has been introduced [4, 8,9], where PR is obtained by imposing restrictions on the filter structure instead of on the filter coefieients. We use here a particularisation of a we propose a the general structure of a JPEG coder, but which uses a nonlinear transform to replace the DCT. The nonlinear transform pyramidal coder' which

Nonlinear filter generators are common components used in the keystream generators for stream ciphers and more recently for authentication mechanisms. They consist of a Linear Feedback Shift Register (LFSR) and a nonlinear Boolean function to mask the linearity of the LFSR output. Properties of the output of a nonlinear filter are not well studied. Anderson noted that the m-tuple output of a no...

This paper proposes a new adaptive extended Kalman filter (AEKF) for a class of nonlinear systems perturbed by noise which is not necessarily additive. The proposed filter is adaptive against the uncertainty in the process and measurement noise covariances. This is accomplished by deriving two recursive updating rules for the noise covariances, these rules are easy to implement and reduce the n...

Abstract In this paper, a real-time predictive filter is derived for nonlinear systems. The major advantage of this new filter over conventional filters is that it provides a method of determining optimal state estimates in the presence of significant error in the assumed (nominal) model. The new real-time nonlinear filter determines (“predicts”) the optimal model error trajectory so that the m...
