Improved Variable Forgetting Factor Proportionate RLS Algorithm with Sparse Penalty and Fast Implementation Using DCD Iterations

The proportionate recursive least squares(PRLS)algorithm has shown faster convergence and better performance than both proportionate updating(PU)mechanism based least mean squares(LMS)algorithms and RLS algorithms with a sparse regularization term.In this paper,we propose a variable forgetting factor(VFF)PRLS algorithm with a sparse penalty,e.g.,l_(1)-norm,for sparse identification.To reduce the computation complexity of the proposed algorithm,a fast implementation method based on dichotomous coordinate descent(DCD)algorithm is also derived.Simulation results indicate superior performance of the proposed algorithm.

Iterative identification of output error model for industrial processes with time delay subject to colored noise

To deal with colored noise and unexpected load disturbance in identification of industrial processes with time delay, a bias-eliminated iterative least-squares(ILS) identification method is proposed in this paper to estimate the output error model parameters and time delay simultaneously. An extended observation vector is constructed to establish an ILS identification algorithm. Moreover, a variable forgetting factor is introduced to enhance the convergence rate of parameter estimation. For consistent estimation, an instrumental variable method is given to deal with the colored noise. The convergence and upper bound error of parameter estimation are analyzed. Two illustrative examples are used to show the effectiveness and merits of the proposed method.

Modeling and state of charge estimation of lithium-ion battery

Modeling and state of charge （SOC） estimation of lithium-ion （Li-ion） battery are the key techniques of battery pack management system （BMS） and critical to its reliability and safety operation. An auto-regressive with exogenous input （ARX） model is derived from RC equivalent circuit model （ECM） due to the discrete-time characteristics of BMS. For the time-varying environmental factors and the actual battery operating conditions, a variable forgetting factor recursive least square （VFFRLS） algorithm is adopted as an adaptive parameter identifica- tion method. Based on the designed model, an SOC estimator using cubature Kalman filter （CKF） algorithm is then employed to improve estimation performance and guarantee numerical stability in the computational procedure. In the battery tests, experimental results show that CKF SOC estimator has a more accuracy estimation than extended Kalman filter （EKF） algorithm, which is widely used for Li-ion battery SOC estimation, and the maximum estimation error is about 2.3%.
