ABSTRACT In this paper, convergence analysis of the extended Kalman filter
(EKF), when used as an observer for nonlinear deterministic
discrete-time systems, is presented. Based on a new formulation of the
first-order linearization technique, sufficient conditions to ensure
local asymptotic convergence are established. Furthermore, it is shown
that the design of the arbitrary matrix plays an important role in
enlarging the domain of attraction and then improving the convergence of
the modified EKF significantly. The efficiency of this approach,
compared to the classical version of the EKF, is shown through a
nonlinear identification problem as well as a state and parameter
estimation of nonlinear discrete-time systems

    Conference Proceeding: Experimental comparison of online parameter identification schemes for a nanopositioning stage with variable mass
    [show abstract] [hide abstract]
    ABSTRACT: An experimental comparison of two common parameter identification schemes is presented. The recursive least-squares method and the extended Kalman filter are applied to identify three parameters of a second-order linear mass-spring-damper model, using data obtained from a nanopositioning stage with a highly resonant dynamic response.

    Conference Proceeding: Semiglobal state observers for nonlinear analytic discrete-time systems
    [show abstract] [hide abstract]
    ABSTRACT: This paper presents an improved version of a semiglobal state observer for nonlinear analytic discrete-time systems, proposed by the authors in a recent work . The method is based on the Taylor approximation of the inverse of the system observability map. In this work the performances of the improved observer are compared with those of the old version, both from a theoretical point of view, by presenting the semiglobal convergence theorems for both observers, and from a practical point of view, through computer simulation.

    Conference Proceeding: The Polynomial Extended Kalman Filter as an exponential observer for nonlinear discrete-time systems
    [show abstract] [hide abstract]
    ABSTRACT: This paper presents some results on the local exponential convergence of the Polynomial Extended Kalman Filter (PEKF, see [14]) used as a state observer for deterministic nonlinear discrete-time systems (Polynomial Extended Kalman Observer, PEKO). A new compact formalism is introduced for the representation of the so called Carleman linearization of nonlinear discrete time systems, that allows for the derivation of the observation error dynamics in a concise form, similar to the one of the classical Extended Kalman Filter. The stability analysis performed in this paper is also important in the stochastic framework, in that the exponential stability of the error dynamics can be used to prove that the moments of the estimation error, up to a given order, remain bounded over time (stability of the PEKF).
