Abstract

In this paper, results of robust estimation of Zhou (2010a) are extended to state estimation with missing measurements. A new procedure is derived which inherits the main properties of that of Zhou (2010a). In this extension, a covariance matrix used in the recursions is replaced by its estimate which makes its asymptotic property investigation mathematically difficult. Though introducing a monotonic function and using the so-called squeeze rule, this new robust estimator is proved to converge to a stable system. Numerical simulation results indicate that the proposed estimator may have an estimation accuracy better than the estimator of Wang, Yang, Daniel, and Liu (2005).
