What is Recursive State Estimation Algorithm

This chapter deals with the description, the parametric estimation, the state estimation, and the parametric and state estimation conjointly of nonlinear systems. The focus is on the class of nonlinear systems, which are described by Wiener state-space discrete-time mathematical models. Thus, the authors develop a new recursive parametric estimation algorithm, which is based on least squares techniques. The stability conditions of the developed parametric estimation scheme are analyzed using the Lyapunov method. The state estimation problem of the considered nonlinear systems is formulated. Thus, the authors propose a recursive state estimation algorithm, which is based on Kalman Filter. A new recursive algorithm is proposed, which permits one to estimate conjointly the parameters and the state variables of nonlinear systems described by Wiener mathematical models, with unknown parameters and state variables. The efficiency and performance of the proposed recursive estimation algorithms are tested on numerical simulation examples.
