- Outline:
-
The performance of Kalman filters may be degraded in the presence
of model errors. A method for robust design, based on the
minimization of averaged mean square error criteria,
is proposed here. Its properties are compared to those of
an alternative minimax approach.
- Abstract:
-
A probabilistic approach to the robustification of
Kalman filters is presented.
It results in a higher order model, in which the uncertainty
can be taken into account by simply
modifying the noise covariance matrices.
The proposed method provides a systematic way of
performing this transformation.
The performance
of the robustified Kalman filter is
compared to that of a recently proposed
minimax H-2 scheme, based on two coupled Riccati
equations and a one-dimensional numerical search.
It is concluded that such methods should be used with
care, since their guaranteed performance may be
worse than that obtained by doing no filtering at all.
