abstract

  • In this paper, a new state and parameter estimation method is introduced based on the particle filter (PF) and the sliding innovation filter (SIF). The PF is a popular estimation method, which makes use of distributed point masses to form an approximation of the probability distribution function (PDF). The SIF is a relatively new estimation strategy based on sliding mode concepts, formulated in a predictor-corrector format. It has been shown to be very robust to modeling errors and uncertainties. The combined method (PF-SIF) utilizes the estimates and state error covariance of the SIF to formulate the proposal distribution which generates the particles used by the PF. The PF-SIF method is applied on a nonlinear target tracking problem, where the results are compared with other popular estimation methods.
