Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of filtering technology, specifically relating to a multi-sensor fusion filtering method for 2-D systems with energy harvesting under measurement censoring. Background Technology

[0002] As a typical multivariable system, the state of a 2-D system evolves in two independent directions. On the one hand, this characteristic makes 2-D systems widely applicable in practical engineering, such as in heat treatment processes, image data processing, and gas absorption. On the other hand, their complex dynamic behavior also brings many challenges to the study of 2-D systems, because many important conclusions obtained from 1-D models cannot be directly generalized to 2-D systems.

[0003] Measurement censoring is a common phenomenon in engineering, mainly caused by factors such as limited communication, sensor saturation, and obstructed areas. Censoring causes measurement outputs to exhibit nonlinear characteristics, resulting in measurement noise no longer following a Gaussian distribution, thus rendering traditional Kalman filtering methods inapplicable. To date, the most effective approach to address the measurement nonlinearity problem caused by censoring is to construct a Tobit model for the censored measurements and then use a Tobit Kalman filter for estimation.

[0004] With the continuous advancement of information acquisition and transmission technologies, the problem of multi-sensor fusion filtering has gradually attracted widespread attention in academia. This method aims to obtain more accurate state estimates than those from a single sensor by effectively fusing data from multiple sensors. In multi-sensor systems, each sensor consumes a significant amount of energy during signal transmission, making energy supply a crucial challenge in system design. The traditional solution is to equip each sensor with an independent power supply for charging; however, this approach is difficult to sustain long-term due to the limited energy storage capacity of batteries. In recent years, energy-harvesting sensors have emerged due to their self-replenishing energy advantage, effectively extending sensor lifespan.

[0005] In summary, to more accurately reflect the operating environment of the system and achieve reliable state estimation, this paper studies the multi-sensor fusion filtering problem for nonlinear 2-D systems, considering both energy harvesting and measurement censoring, based on the outlier suppression method. Summary of the Invention

[0006] This invention addresses nonlinear 2-D systems in practical engineering that suffer from measurement censoring and energy constraints. Based on outlier suppression, it proposes a multi-sensor fusion filtering method. Specifically, the method involves five steps: constructing a state-space model of the 2-D nonlinear system; establishing a Tobit model for censored measurements; constructing a mathematical model for energy harvesting sensors; designing a Tobit Kalman filter for outlier suppression and deriving the upper bound of the minimum filtering error variance; and obtaining the optimal fused estimate and the corresponding upper bound of the estimation error variance using the CI fusion rule. By employing stochastic analysis and 2-D mathematical induction, the proposed filtering method enables reliable estimation of 2-D nonlinear systems under energy constraints and measurement censoring.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

Establish a mathematical model for the energy harvesting sensor: For the censored signal processed in step S2, construct an energy harvesting constraint model to characterize the energy changes of the sensor during the relay process. Then, calculate the probability that the sensor can successfully transmit the censored measurement value at each time step. Furthermore, under the energy harvesting mechanism, derive the conditional expectation and conditional variance of the censored measurement value with respect to the system state.

[0012] S4. Construct a local outlier suppression Tobit Kalman filter and obtain the upper bound of the minimum filter error variance: Based on the outlier suppression method, a local Tobit Kalman filter is constructed using the received censored measurements to achieve a reliable estimation of the system state; then, the upper bound of the filter error variance is derived by combining stochastic analysis and 2-D mathematical induction, and by designing a suitable filter gain, the upper bound is minimized at each step.

[0013] S5. Obtain the fusion estimation result based on local estimation and CI fusion method: Based on the local estimation result obtained in step S4 and its minimum filter error variance upper bound, the CI fusion method is adopted. By optimizing the fusion weight, the global optimal estimation and its corresponding fusion error variance upper bound are further obtained, thereby realizing high-precision fusion estimation of multi-sensor information.

[0014] Furthermore, in step S1, the state-space expression of the constructed 2-D nonlinear system is:

[0015] x(r,s)=g1(r,s-1,x(r,s-1))+g2(r-1,s,x(r-1,s))

[0016] +B1(r,s-1)ω(r,s-1)+B2(r-1,s)ω(r-1,s)

[0017] in ( (where the integer is a known positive integer) Let ω(r,s) be the system state, and let B be a zero-mean Gaussian white noise sequence with variance Q(r,s)≥0. l (r,s)(l=1,2) is a known appropriate-dimensional shear matrix. For l=1,2, the nonlinear function g l (r,s,x(r,s)) satisfies the following constraints:

[0018]

[0019] Where A l (r,s) and a l (r,s)(l=1,2) are known shear matrices and non-negative constants, respectively. The initial states x(r,0) and x(0,s) are set as two white noise sequences, satisfying... and Here, η1(r) and η2(s) are known vectors that satisfy η1(0) = η2(0).

[0020] Assume the system is measured by W sensor nodes, and the uncensored measurement value of the t-th sensor, t∈[1 / W], satisfies the following dynamics:

[0021]

[0022] in For uncensored measurements, m t It is the dimension of the measured value. The variance is Zero-mean Gaussian white noise, Let be a known appropriate dimension shear matrix.

[0023] Further, in step S2, for the censoring measurements of the 2-D system, a Tobit regression model is constructed as follows:

[0024] The Tobit observation model constructed based on the censoring measurements obtained from the sensors is as follows:

[0025]

[0026] Where, for t∈[1 W] and d∈[1 m] t ], For censored measurements The d-th element, τ td The censoring threshold is known.

[0027] To more accurately characterize the Tobit observation model, a set of Bernoulli random variables ξ is used. td (r,s), d∈[1m] t To describe the censoring measurement value

[0045] Prob{h t (r,s)=k}=p t,k k = 0, 1, 2, ..., D t

[0046] Where, p t,k Satisfying 0≤p t,k ≤1 and Since the amount of energy stored in the sensor varies randomly, its ability to successfully transmit a measurement value at each moment is essentially a random event. Let the actual measurement value received by the t-th local filter be... So y t (r,s) can be expressed as:

[0094] Furthermore, in step S5, based on the local estimation results obtained in step S4 and the upper bound of its minimum filtering error variance, the fused Tobit Kalman filter can be written as follows according to the CI fusion rule:

The proposed method incorporates nonlinearity into the system state when establishing the 2-D state-space model, making its dynamic behavior more complex and general. A Tobit model is constructed for censored measurements, introducing Bernoulli random variables to characterize the censoring phenomenon. When constructing the energy harvesting constraint model, considering that sensors are usually deployed in remote areas with insufficient power supply, an energy constraint model is used to characterize the energy changes of the sensors, making the results more practically meaningful. The probability that the sensor can successfully transmit censored measurements, as well as the conditional expectation and conditional variance of the censored measurements with respect to the system state, are calculated. A local outlier suppression Tobit Kalman filter is constructed. Using stochastic analysis and 2-D mathematical induction, the upper bound of the filter error variance is derived, and by designing appropriate filter parameters, this upper bound is minimized. Using the CI fusion rule, by optimizing the fusion weights, the global optimal estimate and its corresponding upper bound of the fusion error variance are further obtained, thereby achieving high-precision fusion estimation of multi-sensor information.

[0114] Step S1: Construct the state-space expression of the 2-D nonlinear system:

[0115] x(r,s)=g1(r,s-1,x(r,s-1))+g2(r-1,s,x(r-1,s))

[0116] +B1(r,s-1)ω(r,s-1)+B2(r-1,s)ω(r-1,s)

[0117] in ( (where the integer is a known positive integer) Let ω(r,s) be the system state, and let B be a zero-mean Gaussian white noise sequence with variance Q(r,s)≥0. l (r,s)(l=1,2) is a known appropriate-dimensional shear matrix. For l=1,2, the nonlinear function g l (r,s,x(r,s)) satisfies the following constraints:

[0118]

[0119] Where A l (r,s) and a l (r,s)(l=1,2) are known shear matrices and non-negative constants, respectively. The initial states x(r,0) and x(0,s) are set as two white noise sequences, satisfying... and Here, η1(r) and η2(s) are known vectors that satisfy η1(0) = η2(0).

[0123] Step S2: Constrained by censored measurements for a 2-D system, construct a Tobit regression model and introduce Bernoulli random variables to characterize the censoring phenomenon. Furthermore, derive the conditional expectation and conditional variance of the censored measurements with respect to the system state.

[0124] First, based on the censoring measurements obtained from the sensors, the Tobit observation model is constructed as follows:

Then, calculate the probability that the sensor can successfully transmit the censored measurement at each time step. Furthermore, under the energy harvesting mechanism, derive the conditional expectation and conditional variance of the censored measurement with respect to the system state.

[0142] Sensor devices are typically deployed in remote areas far from city centers to achieve long-distance signal transmission. This deployment method can lead to energy constraints for the sensors, resulting in measurement failures due to insufficient energy. Therefore, each sensor employs energy harvesting technology to acquire and store energy from the external environment. Measurements are only transmitted when the energy stored in each sensor is sufficient to support signal transmission. Only then can the data be successfully transmitted to the corresponding remote filter. In this invention, it is assumed that the sensor consumes one unit of energy each time it transmits a measurement value. First, a double-indexed ordered sequence is defined: symbol (r (1) ,s (1) )<(r (2) ,s (2) )express And the equation (r) (1) ,s (1) )=(r (2),s (2) It holds if and only if r (1) =r (2) and s (1) =s (2) Established; for The step before defining (r,s) is (r 0 ,s 0 ), obviously (r 0 ,s 0 The following constraints must be met:

[0151] Where, p t,k Satisfying 0≤p t,k ≤1 and Since the amount of energy stored in the sensor varies randomly, its ability to successfully transmit a measurement value at each moment is essentially a random event. Let the actual measurement value received by the t-th local filter be... So y t (r,s) can be expressed as:

Subsequently, the upper bound of the filter error variance is derived by combining stochastic analysis and 2-D mathematical induction, and by designing a suitable filter gain, the upper bound is minimized at each step.

[0233] To illustrate the impact of the censoring threshold on the performance of the designed filter, we compared the magnitudes of the minimum upper bound Θ1(r,s) by selecting different censoring thresholds. In addition to the previously provided censoring threshold τ...11 =0, and for τ1, choose two other values: -0.5 and 0.5, and denote the corresponding minimum upper bounds as 0, -0.5, -0.5, and 0.5, respectively. and Figure 4 Described and The evolutionary trajectory shows that as the censoring threshold τ increases... 11 As the threshold increases, the trace of the minimum upper bound Θ1(r,s) gradually increases, meaning that the filtering performance gradually deteriorates as the censoring threshold increases, which is consistent with actual engineering practice.
