Book Description
A significant shortcoming of the state space control theory that emerged in the 1960s was its lack of concern for the issue of robustness. However, in the design of feedback control systems, robustness is a critical issue. These facts led to great activity in the research area of robust control theory. One of the major developments of modern control theory was the Kalman Filter and hence the development of a robust version of the Kalman Filter has become an active area of research. Although the issue of robustness in filtering is not as critical as in feedback control (where there is always the issue of instability to worry about), research on robust filtering and state estimation has remained very active in recent years. However, although numerous books have appeared on the topic of Kalman filtering, this book is one of the first to appear on robust Kalman filtering. Most of the material presented in this book derives from a period of research collaboration between the authors from 1992 to 1994. However, its origins go back earlier than that. The first author (LR. P. ) became in terested in problems of robust filtering through his research collaboration with Dr. Duncan McFarlane. At this time, Dr. McFarlane was employed at the Melbourne Research Laboratories ofBHP Ltd. , a large Australian min erals, resources, and steel processing company.

Book Description
This monograph provides the reader with a systematic treatment of robust filter design, a key issue in systems, control and signal processing, because of the fact that the inevitable presence of uncertainty in system and signal models often degrades the filtering performance and may even cause instability. The methods described are therefore not subject to the rigorous assumptions of traditional Kalman filtering. The monograph is concerned with robust filtering for various dynamical systems with parametric uncertainties and focuses on parameter-dependent approaches to filter design. Classical filtering schemes, like H2 filtering and H¥ filtering, are addressed and emerging issues such as robust filtering with constraints on communication channels and signal frequency characteristics are discussed. The text features: · design approaches to robust filters arranged according to varying complexity level and emphasizing robust filtering in the parameter-dependent framework for the first time; · guidance on the use of special realistic phenomena or factors to describe problems more accurately and to improve filtering performance; · a unified linear matrix inequality formulation of design approaches for easy and effective filter design; · demonstration of the techniques of matrix decoupling technique, the generalized Kalman‒Yakubovich‒Popov lemma, the free weighting matrix technique and the delay modelling approach, in robust filtering; · numerous easy-to-follow simulation examples, graphical and tabular illustrations to help the reader understand the filter design approaches developed; and · an account of emerging issues on robust filtering for research to inspire future investigation. Robust Filtering for Uncertain Systems will be of interest to academic researchers specializing in linear, robust and optimal control and estimation and to practitioners working in tracking and network control or signal filtering, detection and estimation. Graduate students learning control and systems theory, signal processing or applied mathematics will also find the book to be a valuable resource.

Book Description
This thesis provides a novel approach to the problem of state estimation for discrete-time nonlinear systems in the presence of large model uncertainties. Though classical nonlinear Kalman filters such as the extended Kalman filter (EKF) can handle uncertainties by increasing the value of noise covariances, this is only applicable to systems with small uncertainties. To this end, a discretetime robust extended Kalman filter (REKF) is formulated and applied to examples from the fields of aerospace engineering and signal processing with an emphasis on attitude estimation for small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and image processing under the influence of atmospheric turbulence. The robust filter is an approximate set-valued state estimator where the Riccati and filter equations are obtained as an approximate solution to a reverse-time optimal control problem defining the set-valued state estimator. The advantages of the REKF over the classical EKF are investigated for examples from the fields aerospace engineering and signal processing where large model uncertainties are introduced. In the case of small UAVs, an alternative attitude estimation algorithm based on the REKF is proposed in the event of gyroscopic failure and the inability of the vehicle to carry redundant sensors due to limited payload capabilities. In the case of image reconstruction under atmospheric turbulence, a robust pixel-wandering (random shifts) scheme is proposed to aid the process of image reconstruction. Also, problems pertaining to platform vibration analysis for aerospace vehicles and a frequency demodulation process in the presence of channel-induced uncertainties is also discussed.

Book Description
This book addresses a key technology for digital information processing: Kalman filtering, which is generally considered to be one of the greatest discoveries of the 20th century. It introduces readers to issues concerning various uncertainties in a single plant, and to corresponding solutions based on adaptive estimation. Further, it discusses in detail the issues that arise when Kalman filtering technology is applied in multi-sensor systems and/or multi-agent systems, especially when various sensors are used in systems like intelligent robots, autonomous cars, smart homes, smart buildings, etc., requiring multi-sensor information fusion techniques. Furthermore, when multiple agents (subsystems) interact with one another, it produces coupling uncertainties, a challenging issue that is addressed here with the aid of novel decentralized adaptive filtering techniques.Overall, the book’s goal is to provide readers with a comprehensive investigation into the challenging problem of making Kalman filtering work well in the presence of various uncertainties and/or for multiple sensors/components. State-of-art techniques are introduced, together with a wealth of novel findings. As such, it can be a good reference book for researchers whose work involves filtering and applications; yet it can also serve as a postgraduate textbook for students in mathematics, engineering, automation, and related fields.To read this book, only a basic grasp of linear algebra and probability theory is needed, though experience with least squares, navigation, robotics, etc. would definitely be a plus.
