A novel monitoring signal for the decision logic unit of the estimator-based supervisory robust multiple model adaptive control implementing the expectation–maximization algorithm
摘要
This paper presents a novel monitoring signal for the decision logic unit of the supervisory strategies, utilizing the probability-weighted robust multiple model adaptive control (P-W RMMAC) methodology design tools in linear time-invariant systems. The implementation of the online Baram Proximity Index (BPI) measures, defined in a stochastic metric space, as monitoring signals, is introduced. Since the true plant parameter values are unknown, the online relative BPI values between the true plant model and the predefined nominal models not to be accessible, consequently, an online computation of relative BPI values utilizing the recursive expectation–maximization (R-EM) algorithm has been proposed. Subsequently, the switching logic/mechanism for the supervisory architecture of the closed-loop control system, which employs these BPI metrics as monitoring signals, is presented. In summary, in this study, the R-EM algorithm employs instant values of each residual (estimation error) signals to generate the online relative BPI values as monitoring signals to select one of the proper local mixed-
