Modelling and estimation for uncertain systems with transmission delays, packet dropouts, and out-of-order packets (Q1722945)

Summary: The study focuses on the modelling and estimation of a class of discrete-time uncertain systems, including network-induced random delays, packet dropouts, and out-of-order packets during the data transmission from the plant to the estimator. In order to improve system performance, event-triggered signal selection method is used to establish the system model. Based on this model, a distributed measurement and centralized fusion estimation scheme is designed using a robust finite horizon Kalman-type filter. Since the phenomena caused by the network-induced deteriorate estimation accuracy, a time-based reorganization measurement is employed to design a linear delay compensation strategy based on estimation. Moreover, in order to obtain the optimal linear estimation, weighted fusion estimation approach is used to perform information collaboration through the error cross-covariance matrix. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method has higher estimation performance than the existing methods in this study.
