Hybrid Observer for Indoor Localization with Random Time-of-Arrival Measurments
2018
In this work an indoor position estimation algorithm will be proposed. The position will be measured by means of a sensor network composed by fixed beacons placed on the indoor environment and a mobile beacon mounted on the object to be tracked. The mobile beacon communicates with all the fixed beacons by means of ultra wide-band signals, and the distance between them is computed by means of time of flight techniques. Moreover, inertial measurements will be used when the position measurements are not available. Two main problems will be considered in the proposed architecture: the fact that the beacons work with a lower update rate than the IMU, and that the mobile beacon can comunicate wit…
Dynamic Distributed Intrusion Detection for Secure Multi-Robot Systems
2009
A general technique to build a dynamic and distributed intrusion detector for a class of multi–agent systems is proposed in this paper, by which misbehavior in the motion of one or more agents can be discovered. Previous work from the authors has focused on how to distinguish the behavior of a misbehaving agent in a completely distributed way, by developing a solution where agents act as local monitors of their neighbors and use locally sensed information as well as data received from other monitors at a particular time. In this work, we improve the system detection capability by allowing monitors to use information collected at different instants and thus realizing a dynamic state observer…
Real Time Localization Systems for autonomous navigation: Modelling, Analysis and Control
2021
Questo lavoro di tesi riguarda la derivazione di osservatori ibridi dello stato, analisi e controllo, di sistemi di localizzazione e navigazione in tempo reale (RTLS). In particolare, il framework dei sistemi ibridi è stato utilizzato per tener conto delle dinamiche continue e discrete coinvolte nel processo di stima e della natura sporadica e tempo randomica delle misure provenienti da vari sensori di distanza e/o inerziali. Analisi di convergenza sono state effettuate per dimostrare la stabilità delle soluzioni proposte e la capacità di filtraggio dei rumori presenti nelle misure. Il presente lavoro è corredato dai risultati delle prove sperimentali di laboratorio a conferma della validit…
Hybrid nonlinear observer for Inertial Navigation
2016
This paper considers the problem of designing an observer for navigation and localization of inertial systems. Since the measurement systems used in this field have a low update rate with respect to the control algorithm, the design of a suitable observer with sampled measurements is required. Here a hybrid non-linear observer is proposed, combining two different observers with different characteristics. A theoretical treatment is given in order to prove the convergence of the observer and it will be contextualized in the framework of the hybrid systems, providing an elegant setting for the proposed solution. Finally experimental results show the feasibility of the proposed observer and the…
A hybrid observer for localization of mobile vehicles with asynchronous measurements
2019
The aim of this paper is the design of a hybrid nonlinear observer for mobile vehicles. The main problem is that position and velocity measurements are provided with a very low frequency, and the time between two consecutive measurements could be not constant, but it could vary randomly within a certain interval of time. For this reason the proposed observer has been contextualized in the hybrid systems framework. The convergence analysis of the estimation error has been carried out, and the sensitivity analysis has been performed in order to evaluate the bound of the estimation error when the measurements are biased and/or noisy. Simulation and experimental results, carried out on a mobile…
