A multiple model-based sliding innovation filter

In this brief work, a novel filtering technique that combines the newly developed sliding innovation filter with a multiple model strategy is proposed. Introduced in 2020, the sliding innovation filter is a relatively new filter used for state and parameter estimation. Based on variable structure techniques, it shares the same principles with sliding mode observers. The filter is robust and stable under system modeling uncertainties. The proposed method multiple model-based sliding innovation filter is tested on an electrohydrostatic actuator (EHA) and the results are discussed.
