In this chapter a Robust Self-Adaptive Kalman Filter (RSAKF) algorithm with the filter gain correction is developed for the case of sensor/actuator malfunctions. The proposed RSAKF utilizes timevariable factors in order to reduce the effect of the faults on the estimation procedure. In this sense, the procedures with single and multiple factors for the adaptation of the filter are presented. In the first case, the filter is adapted by using single adaptive factor as a corrective term on the filter gain while in the second one, an adaptive matrix built of multiple adaptive factors is used to fix the relevant term of theKalman gain matrix, individually. After chosing the efficent method of adaptation, an overall concept for the RSAKF is proposed. In this concept, the filter detects the type of the fault, either in the sensors or actuators, and after the fault isolation it applies the required adaptation process such that the estimation characteristic is not deteriorated. Effectiveness of the proposed filters is investigated via simulations for the state estimation problem of an UAV. The results of the presented algorithms are compared for different types of sensor/actuator faults and in this context recommendations about their utilization are given.

Robust adaptive unscented Kalman filter for attitude estimation of pico satellites Hacızade, Cengiz; Söken, Halil Ersin (Wiley, 2014-02-01) Unscented Kalman filter (UKF) is a filtering algorithm that gives sufficiently good estimation results for the estimation problems of nonlinear systems even when high nonlinearity is in question. However, in case of system uncertainty or measurement malfunctions, the UKF becomes inaccurate and diverges by time. This study introduces a fault-tolerant attitude estimation algorithm for pico satellites. The algorithm uses a robust adaptive UKF, which performs correction for the process noise covariance (Q-adapt...
Robust Adaptive Kalman Filter for estimation of UAV dynamics in the presence of sensor/actuator faults Hacızade, Cengiz; Söken, Halil Ersin (2013-07-01) In this paper a Robust Adaptive Kalman Filter (RAKF) is introduced. The RAKF incorporates measurement and process noise covariance adaptation procedures (R and Q adaptation respectively) and utilizes adaptive factors in order to adapt itself against sensor/actuator faults. Thus the filter stands robust against the faults and even in case of sensor/actuator failure keeps providing accurate estimation results. In a single algorithm, the RAKF detects the fault, isolates it and applies the required adaptation p...
Adaptive Fading UKF with Q-Adaptation: Application to Picosatellite Attitude Estimation Söken, Halil Ersin (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2013-07-01) The unscented Kalman filter (UKF) is a filtering algorithm that gives sufficiently good estimation results for estimation problems of nonlinear systems even when high nonlinearity is in question. However, in the case of system uncertainty the UKF becomes inaccurate and diverges in time. In other words, if any change occurs in the process noise covariance, which is known a priori, the filter fails. This study introduces a novel adaptive fading UKF algorithm based on the correction of process noise covariance...
Simultaneous adaptation of the process and measurement noise covariances for the UKF applied to nanosatellite attitude estimation Söken, Halil Ersin; Sakai, Shin-Ichiro (2014-01-01) © IFAC.A common technique for improving the estimation performance of the Kalman filter and making the filter robust against any kind of faults is to adapt its process and measurement noise covariance matrices. Although there are numerous approaches for the adaptation such as full estimation or scaling, simultaneous adaptation of these two matrices is an ongoing discussion. In this paper, firstly, two common problems for the attitude estimation of a nanosatellite are solved by adapting the process and noise...
Estimation of pico-satellite attitude dynamics and external torques via Unscented Kalman Filter Söken, Halil Ersin (FapUNIFESP (SciELO), 2014-01-01) In this study, an Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) algorithm is designed for estimating the attitude of a picosatellite and the in-orbit external disturbance torques. The estimation vector is formed by the satellite's attitude, angular rates, and the unknown constant components of the external disturbance torques acting on the satellite. The gravity gradient torque, residual magnetic moment, sun radiation pressure and aerodynamic drag are all included in the estimated external disturbance torque vector. The sa...
