Infos

This book enables readers to understand system identification and linear system modeling through 100 practical exercises without requiring complex theoretical knowledge. The contents encompass state-of-the-art system identification methods, with both time and frequency domain system identification methods covered, including the pros and cons of each. Each chapter features MATLAB exercises, discussions of the exercises, accompanying MATLAB downloads, and larger projects that serve as potential assignments in this learn-by-doing resource.

Rezensionen

System identification is a very important topic for both
off-line simulation studies and also on-line control applications,
in particular for non-linear systems whose parameters change with
the operating conditions.

The book "Mastering System Identification in 100
Exercises" does a thorough job of explaining and illustrating
the system identification theory and its application in modeling
systems for off-line simulation studies. The major emphasis of the
book is on frequency domain models, that are well suited for
off-line studies, and also as the authors say, "is partly due
to the authors' background and experience". A small
part of the book is devoted to time-domain modeling.

The one hundred exercises are arranged in 7 Chapters. Chapter 1
provides a basic introduction to the mathematical techniques
commonly used in parameter estimation, with the type of signals,
random or periodic, introduced in Chapter 2. Measurement of
frequency response functions, excitation signals and noise
estimation are introduced by the exercises in Chapter 3. With this
background, the reader is equipped to estimate the plant and noise
dynamics for linear systems in Chapter 4. Noise plays a significant
part in estimation practice and a good deal of attention is devoted
to noise characterization and estimation. These and related
aspects, including the linear approximation of non-linear systems,
are extensively covered in the following two chapters, i.e.
Chapters 5 and 6. Identification of parameters with non-linearities
is illustrated by the exercises in Chapter 7.

The exercises given in the book are supported by solutions using
MATLAB programs.

The noise in measurements used to estimate a system model is
given a thorough treatment in the book. For a reader not conversant
with estimation theory, the book provides a gradual and well
organized approach starting from basic to more advanced problem
solution.

As mentioned above, on-line system model identification for
real-time control is also a very important topic. Such
identification, done primarily in time domain, also has the added
constraint of limited time for computation in real-time. The
standard off-line identification procedures need significant
modifications to make them suitable for real-time application. That
aspect of system identification is missing from this book as it is
primarily devoted to model identification for off-line simulation
studies. It would have been desirable to indicate that somehow in
the title.
