Simulation of a UAV ground control station
2012
International audience; In this article we present the development of a UAV ground control station simulator. We propose a module based description of the architecture of this simulator. We recall the nonlinear model of a fixed-wing aircraft. Finally, we outline ideas for improved path planning tasks. The approach is made clearthrough several diagrams, figures of the resulting station are displayed.
Adaptive high-gain extended kalman filter and applications
2010
The work concerns the ``observability problem” --- the reconstruction of a dynamic process's full state from a partially measured state--- for nonlinear dynamic systems. The Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) is a widely-used observer for such nonlinear systems. However it suffers from a lack of theoretical justifications and displays poor performance when the estimated state is far from the real state, e.g. due to large perturbations, a poor initial state estimate, etc… We propose a solution to these problems, the Adaptive High-Gain (EKF). Observability theory reveals the existence of special representations characterizing nonlinear systems having the observability property. Such representations…
Using an Adaptive High-Gain Extended Kalman Filter With a Car Efficiency Model
2010
The authors apply the Adaptive High-Gain Extended Kalman Filter (AEKF) to the problem of estimating engine efficiency with data gathered from normal driving. The AEKF is an extension of the traditional Kalman Filter that allows the filter to be reactive to perturbations without sacrificing noise filtering. An observability normal form of the engine efficiency model is developed for the AEKF. The continuous-discrete AEKF is presented along with strategies for dealing with asynchronous data. Empiric test results are presented and contrasted with EKF-derived results.Copyright © 2010 by ASME
Adaptive-gain extended Kalman filter: Extension to the continuous-discrete case
2009
In the present article we propose a nonlinear observer that merges the behaviors 1) of an extended Kalman filter, mainly designed to smooth off noise , and 2) of high-gain observers devoted to handle large perturbations in the state estimation. We specifically aim at continuous-discrete systems. The strategy consists in letting the high-gain self adapt according to the innovation. We define innovation computed over a time window and justify its usage via an important lemma. We prove the general convergence of the resulting observer.

We distinguish two kinds of observers for nonlinear systems which are used by scientists and engineers: empirical observers and converging observers.
