lqe

linear quadratic estimator (Kalman Filter)

Syntax

[K, X] = lqe(Pw)
[K, X] = lqe(P, Qww, Rvv)
[K, X] = lqe(P, Qww, Rvv, Swv)

Arguments

Pw

A state space representation of a linear dynamical system (see syslin)

P

A state space representation of a linear dynamical system (nu inputs, ny outputs, nx states) (see syslin)

Qww

Real nx by nx symmetric matrix, the process noise variance

Rvv

full rank real ny by ny symmetric matrix, the measurement noise variance.

Swv

real nx by ny matrix, the process noise vs measurement noise covariance. The default value is zeros(nx,ny).

K

a real matrix, the optimal gain.

X

a real symmetric matrix, the stabilizing solution of the Riccati equation.

Description

This function computes the linear optimal LQ estimator gain of the state estimator for a detectable (see dt_ility) linear dynamical system and the variance matrices for the process and the measurement noises.

Syntax [K,X]=lqe(P,Qww,Rvv [,Swv])

Computes the linear optimal LQ estimator gain K for the dynamical system:

\text{P}=\left\lbrace \begin{array}{l}\dot{x}=A x+B
          u+w\\y=C x+D u +v\end{array}\right. \text{ in continuous time}

or

\text{P}=\left\lbrace \begin{array}{l}x^+=A x+B u
          +w\\y=C x+D u +v\end{array}\right. \text{ in discrete time}

Where w and v are white noises such as \mathbb{E}(w w

The values of B and D are not taken into account.

Standard form

\mathbb{E}\left(\left[\begin{array}{l}w\\v\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ll}w
This covariance matrix can be factored using full-rank factorization (see fuffrf) as
\left[\begin{array}{l}B_w\\D_w\end{array}\right]
                 \left[\begin{array}{ll}B_w
And consequently the initial dynamical system is equivalent to
\left\{\begin{array}{l}\dot{x}=A x+B u +B_w w
                 \\y=C x+D u+D_w w\end{array}\right. \text{ in continuous time }
or
\left\{\begin{array}{l}x^+=A x+B u+B_w
                 w\\y=C x+D u+D_w w \end{array}\right. \text{ in discrete time.}
Where w is now a white noise such as \mathbb{E}(w w

Syntax [K,X]=lqe(Pw)

Computes the linear optimal LQ estimator gain K for the dynamical system

\text{Pw}=\left\{\begin{array}{l}\dot{x}=A
          x+B_w w\\z=C x+D_w w\end{array}\right. \text{ in continuous time or }\text{Pw}=\left\{\begin{array}{l}x^+=A
          x+B_w w\\z=C x+D_w w\end{array}\right. \text{ in discrete time.}

Where w is a white noise with unit covariance.

Properties

  • A + K.C is stable.

  • the state estimator is given by the dynamical system:

    \dot{\hat{x}}=(A+K
                  C)\hat{x}+(B_w+K D_w) u -K y \text{ in continuous time }

    or

    \hat{x}^+=(A+K C)\hat{x}+(B_w+K D_w) u -K y \text{
                  in discrete time.}
    It minimizes the covariance of the steady state error x-\hat{x}.

  • For discrete time systems the state estimator is such that: \hat{x}_{k+1}= \mathbb{E}(x_k| y_0,...,y_k) (one-step predicted x).

Algorithm

Let Q = BwBw', R = DwDw' and S = BwDw'

  • For the continuous time case K is given by: K = -(X.C'+ S).R-1

    where X is the solution of the stabilizing Riccati equation

    (A - SR-1C)X + X(A - SR-1C)' - XC'R-1CX + Q - SR-1S'= 0

  • For the discrete time case K is given by K = - (A X C'+S)(C X C'+ R)+

    where X is the solution of the stabilizing Riccati equation

    AXA'- X - (AXC' + S)(CXC' + R)+(CXA' + S') + Q

Examples

Assume the dynamical system formed by two masses connected by a spring and a damper:

A force u=\bar{u}+e (where e is a noise) is applied to the big one, the deviations from equilibrium positions dy1 and dy2 of the masses are measured. These measures are also subject to an additional noise v.

A continuous time state space representation of this system is:

\left\lbrace\begin{array}{l}
          \dot{x}=\left[\begin{array}{llll}0&1&0&0\\ -k/M&-b/M&k/M&b/M\\ 0&0&0&1\\ k/m&b/m&-k/m&-b/m \end{array}\right] x +\left[\begin{array}{l}0\\ 1/M\\ 0\\ 0 \end{array}\right] (\bar{u}+e)\\
          \left[\begin{array}{l}dy_1\\ dy_2\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{llll}1&0&0&0\\ 0&0&1&0 \end{array}\right] x +v
          \end{array}\right.
\text{Where }x=\left[\begin{array}{l}dy_1\\ \dot{dy_1}\\ dy_2\\ \dot{dy_2}\end{array}\right]
and e and v are discrete time white noises such as
\mathbb{E}(e e
