In this paper, the problem of adaptively identifying time-varying nonlinear systems is considered. For that purpose, the discrete time-varying Volterra series is employed as a system model, and the filtered weighted least squares (FWLS) algorithm, developed for adaptive identification of linear time-varying systems, is utilized for the adaptive identification of time-varying quadratic Volterra systems. To demonstrate the performance of the proposed approach, some simulation results are provided. Note that the FWLS algorithm, decomposing the conventional weighted basis function (WBF) algorithm into a cascade of two (i.e., estimation and filtering) procedures, leads to fast parameter tracking with low computational burden, and the proposed approach can be easily extended to the adaptive identification of time-varying higher-order Volterra systems.

This paper proposed a discrete wavelet transform based method for time-varying physical parameter identification of shear type structures. The time-varying physical parameters are dispersed and expanded at multi-scale as profile and detail signal using discrete wavelet basis. To reduce the number of unknown quantity, the wavelet coefficients that reflect the detail signal are ignored by setting as zero value. Consequently, the time-varying parameter can be approximately estimated only using the scale coefficients that reflect the profile signal, and the identification task is transformed to an equivalent time-invariant scale coefficient estimation. The time-invariant scale coefficients can be simply estimated using regular least-squares methods, and then the original time-varying physical parameters can be reconstructed by using the identified time-invariant scale coefficients. To reduce the influence of the ill-posed problem of equation resolving caused by noise, the Tikhonov regularization method instead of regular least-squares method is used in the paper to estimate the scale coefficients. A two-story shear type frame structure with time-varying stiffness and damping are simulated to validate the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed method. It is demonstrated that the identified time-varying stiffness is with a good accuracy, while the identified damping is sensitive to noise.

In existing identification methods for on-orbit spacecraft, such as eigensystem realization algorithm (ERA) and subspace method identification (SMI), singular value decomposition (SVD) is used frequently to estimate the modal parameters. However, these identification methods are often used to process the linear time-invariant system, and there is a lower computation efficiency using the SVD when the system order of spacecraft is high. In this study, to improve the computational efficiency in identifying time-varying modal parameters of large spacecraft, a faster recursive algorithm called fast approximated power iteration (FAPI) is employed. This approach avoids the SVD and can be provided as an alternative spacecraft identification method, and the latest modal parameters obtained can be applied for updating the controller parameters timely (e.g. the self-adaptive control problem). In numerical simulations, two large flexible spacecraft models, the Engineering Test Satellite-VIII (ETS-VIII) and Soil Moisture Active/Passive (SMAP) satellite, are established. The identification results show that this recursive algorithm can obtain the time-varying modal parameters, and the computation time is reduced significantly.

In this paper, the problem of identifying a time-varying nonlinear system in an adaptive way was considered, whereby the time-varying second-order Volterra series was employed to model the system and the filtered weighted least squares (FWLS) algorithm was utilized for the fast parameter tracking capability with low computational burden. Finally, the performance of the proposed approach was demonstrated by providing some computer simulation results.

This paper presents a comparison of the black-box and the physics based derived gray-box models for subspace identification for structures subjected to support-excitation. The study compares the damage detection capabilities of both these methods for linear time invariant (LTI) systems as well as linear time-varying (LTV) systems by extending the gray-box model for time-varying systems using short-time windows. The numerically simulated IASC-ASCE Phase-I benchmark building has been used to compare the two methods for different damage scenarios. The efficacy of the two methods for the identification of stiffness parameters has been studied in the presence of different levels of sensor noise to simulate on-field conditions. The proposed extension of the gray-box model for LTV systems has been shown to outperform the black-box model in capturing the variation in stiffness parameters for the benchmark building.

When a building structure requires both health monitoring system and vibration control system, integrating the two systems together will be cost-effective and beneficial for creating a smart building structure with its own sensors (nervous system), processors (brain system), and actuators (muscular system). This paper presents a real-time integrated procedure to demonstrate how health monitoring and vibration control can be integrated in real time to accurately identify time-varying structural parameters and unknown excitations on one hand, and to optimally mitigate excessive vibration of the building structure on the other hand. The basic equations for the identification of time-varying structural parameters and unknown excitations of a semi-active damper-controlled building structure are first presented. The basic equations for semi-active vibration control of the building structure with time-varying structural parameters and unknown excitations are then put forward. The numerical algorithm is finally followed to show how the identification and the control can be performed simultaneously. The results from the numerical investigation of an example building demonstrate that the proposed method is feasible and accurate.

A need exists for the accurate identification of time series models having time varying parameters, as is important in the case of real time identification of nonstationary EMG signal. Thls paper describes real time identification and muscle fatigue monitoring method of nonstationary EMG signal. The method is composed of the efficient identifier which estimates the autoregressive parameters of nonstationary EMG signal model, and its real time implementation by using T805 parallel processing computer. The method is verified through experiment with real EMG signals which are obtained from surface electrode. As a result, the proposed method provides a new approach for real time Implementation of muscle fatigue monitoring and the execution time is 0.894ms/sample for 1024Hz EMG signal.

In this paper and recursive version of orthogonal ARMA identification algorithm is proposed. The basic algorithm is based on Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization of automatically selected basis functions from specified function space, but does not require explicit creation of orthogonal functions. By using two dimensional autocorrelations and crosscorrelations of input and output with constant data length, identification algorithm is extended to cope slowly time-varying or order-varying delayed system.

A recursive on-line algorithm for orthogonal ARMA identification is proposed for linear MIMO systems with unknown parameters time delay and order. This algorithm is based on the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization of basis functions, and extended to a recursiveform by using new functions of two dimensional autocorrelations and crosscorrelations of inputs and outputs. This proposed algorithm can also cope with slowly time-varying or order-varying systems. Various simulations reveal the performance of the algorithm.
