This article investigates the problem of robust finite-horizon state estimation for a class of time-varying complex networks under the random access protocol, providing sufficient conditions for the existence of H-infinity state estimators based on partial nodes and demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm through a simulation example.
In this article, the robust finite-horizon state estimation problem is investigated for a class of time-varying complex networks (CNs) under the random access protocol (RAP) through available measurements from only a part of network nodes. The underlying CNs are subject to randomly occurring uncertainties, randomly occurring multiple delays, as well as sensor saturations. Several sequences of random variables are employed to characterize the random occurrences of parameter uncertainties and multiple delays. The RAP is adopted to orchestrate the data transmission at each time step based on a Markov chain. The aim of the addressed problem is to design a series of robust state estimators that make use of the available measurements from partial network nodes to estimate the network states, under the RAP and over a finite horizon, such that the estimation error dynamics achieves the prescribed H-infinity performance requirement. Sufficient conditions are provided for the existence of such time-varying partial-node- based H-infinity state estimators via stochastic analysis and matrix operations. The desired estimators are parameterized by solving certain recursive linear matrix inequalities. The effectiveness of the proposed state estimation algorithm is demonstrated via a simulation example.

Event-Triggered Cost-Guaranteed Control for Linear Repetitive Processes Under Probabilistic Constraints

Kaiqun Zhu, Zidong Wang, Yun Chen, Guoliang Wei

Summary: In this article, the event-triggered cost-guaranteed control problem for shift-varying linear repetitive processes (LRPs) with multiplicative noises under probabilistic constraints is investigated. The event-triggered mechanism is exploited over the limited bandwidth communication network to improve efficiency. A novel event generator function is constructed to determine the order of the event triggering sequence. Probabilistic constraints are enforced onto the shift-varying LRPs with the aid of the event-triggered mechanism. The proposed controller design algorithm ensures the satisfaction of probabilistic constraints and quadratic cost index.

Recursive locally minimum-variance filtering for two-dimensional systems: When dynamic quantization effect meets random sensor failure

Fan Wang, Zidong Wang, Jinling Liang, Carlos Silvestre

Summary: This article addresses the recursive filtering problem of a two-dimensional system array with random sensor failures and dynamic quantizations. The occurrence of sensor failures is governed by a random variable with known statistical properties. To deal with data transmission over networks with limited bandwidth, a dynamic quantizer is utilized to compress raw measurements into quantized ones. The main objective of this article is to design a recursive filter that guarantees a locally minimal upper bound on the filtering error variance. To support the filter design, the states of the dynamic quantizer and the target plant are integrated into an augmented system, which enables the derivation of an upper bound on the filtering error variance and its subsequent minimization at each step. The expected filter gain is parameterized by solving coupled difference equations. Furthermore, the article discusses the monotonicity of the resulting minimum upper bound with respect to the quantization level and investigates its boundedness. Finally, the effectiveness of the developed filtering strategy is demonstrated through a simulation example.

An approximate minimum mean-square error estimator for linear discrete time-varying systems: Handling Try-Once-Discard protocol

Qinyuan Liu, Zidong Wang, Xiao He, Hongli Dong, Changjun Jiang

Summary: This paper focuses on the remote state estimation problem of a class of linear discrete time-varying stochastic systems under communication constraints. A Try-Once-Discard (TOD) protocol is used to regulate signal transmissions over the sensor-to-estimator communication channel in order to mitigate data collisions. The paper investigates the approximate minimum mean-square error (MMSE) state estimation problem under the TOD protocol and develops a recursive algorithm for MMSE estimator design with comparable computational complexity to the conventional Kalman filter. The effectiveness of the proposed MMSE estimator is illustrated through a numerical example.

Measurement Outlier-resistant Mobile Robot Localization

Yanyang Lu, Bo Shen, Yuxuan Shen, Jinghui Suo

Summary: This paper addresses the issue of measurement outlier (MO)-resistant mobile robot localization (MRL). A time-varying state estimator with a saturation function containing variable saturation level is proposed to mitigate the effect of MOs. The goal is to devise an effective solution for the MRL problem by ensuring that the estimation error dynamics meets the H-∞ performance constraint over a finite horizon. The paper derives the existing condition of the estimator by constructing an appropriate Lyapunov function, and provides the desired state estimator gain through solving a set of matrix inequalities, presenting the MO-resistant MRL algorithm. An example is conducted to demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed MRL algorithm.

Stabilisation of distributed-order nonlinear systems via event-triggered control

Shijuan Li, Qiankun Song, Yurong Liu

Summary: This paper investigates the stability of a class of distributed-order nonlinear systems using an event-triggered control method. It first establishes an inequality for the solution of distributed-order nonlinear inequality systems using Laplace transform. Then, by designing a state feedback controller and event-triggered strategy and using Lyapunov stability theory and matrix inequality technique, a sufficient condition for the asymptotic stability of the considered systems is obtained in the form of a linear matrix inequality. Furthermore, a criterion to exclude Zeno behavior in the event-triggered strategy is provided. Finally, the proposed method is verified through a simulation example.

Protocol-Based Particle Filtering for Nonlinear Complex Networks: Handling Non-Gaussian Noises and Measurement Censoring

Weihao Song, Zidong Wang, Zhongkui Li, Hongli Dong, Qing-Long Han

Summary: This paper investigates the particle filtering problem for a class of discrete-time nonlinear complex networks with stochastic perturbations under the scheduling of random access protocol. The stochastic perturbations include on-off stochastic coupling, non-Gaussian noises, and measurement censoring. A random access protocol is used to alleviate data collision over the networks, and two expressions of the modified likelihood function are established to weaken the adverse effects from measurement censoring. A protocol-based filter is designed in the auxiliary particle filtering framework to generate new particles and assign weights based on the derived likelihood function. The developed filtering scheme is demonstrated to be practicable and effective through a multi-target tracking application.

Bogang Qu, Zidong Wang, Bo Shen, Hongli Dong, Hongjian Liu

Summary: This paper investigates the joint state and unknown input estimation (SUIE) problem for multi-machine power grids within energy networks under the event-triggered mechanism. It develops easy-to-implement algorithms to estimate the field voltage and mechanical torque of the synchronous generator (SG), which are generally difficult to be measured in engineering practice. An event-based transmission strategy is used to coordinate the massive PMU-based signal transmissions, and an event-based joint SUIE algorithm is designed to guarantee and minimize the estimation error covariances of both the unknown input and the state. Simulation experiments on the IEEE 39-bus system validate the developed estimation algorithm.
