Abstract
En 中文
In a sensor network, estimation performance may degrade when unknown correlations among local estimates are not addressed carefully. This article presents a novel distributed estimation algorithm based on inverse covariance intersection for effectively solving the cross correlation and dynamic state estimation problems in a wireless sensor network. The intermediate results of a set of consensus filters running in parallel are utilized to realize a global fusion of estimates, which involves all agents' local estimates and improves the estimation accuracy. Meanwhile, the global consistency of the proposed algorithm can be guaranteed theoretically since the fusion process considers all local estimates jointly and in a unified way. Furthermore, besides the asymptotic performance, the boundedness and consistency of the fused estimate can be achieved under finite iterations, which demonstrates its robustness and potential in practical applications. A cooperative target tracking problem illustrates the performance of the proposed algorithm.
