A diagnostic method consisting of a combination of Kalman filters and Bayesian Belief Network (BBN) is presented. A soft-constrained Kalman filter uses a priori information derived by a BBN at each time step, to derive estimations of the unknown health parameters. The resulting algorithm has improved identification capability in comparison to the stand-alone Kalman filter. The paper focuses on a way of combining the information produced by the BBN with the Kalman filter. An extensive set of fault cases is used to test the method on a typical civil turbofan layout. The effectiveness of the method is thus demonstrated, and its advantages over individual constituent methods are presented.

Рассмотрена задача сопровождения маневрирующего баллистического объекта на этапе входа в атмосферу с помощью пассивной антенной решетки. Предложено использовать многомодельный алгоритм на основе расширенного и сигма-точечного фильтров Калмана. Проанализировано влияние точности априорной информации на сходимость многомодельного алгоритма. С помощью математического моделирования проведено сравнение с одиночными фильтрами Калмана. The problem of reentry ballistic target tracking with a passive antenna array is considered. Multiple model algorithm based on extended and sigma-point Kalman filters is proposed. A priori information accuracy influence on the convergence of multiple model algorithm is analyzed. Using mathematical modeling, the results were compared with regular extended Kalman filters.

The accuracy of filtering deteriorates in condition that a priori information used in unscented Kalman filter (UKF) does not accord with the actual conditions. To improve the accuracy of filtering when the noise statistical properties are not known exactly in navigational data fusion, an adaptive UKF is proposed. In the filtering process, the statistical parameters of unknown system noises are adjusted online if filtering abnormality exists. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm increases the accuracy compared with the standard UKF algorithm for integrated navigation.
