Nonlinear System Identification : Input-output Modeling Approach (Mathematical Modelling--Theory and Applications, V. 7)

This text presents a comprehensive overview of nonlinear dynamic system identification. The books include many aspects of nonlinear processes: modelling, parameter estimation, structure search, nonlinearity and model validity tests. The book includes not only nonparametric models but also parametric models which include a limited number of parameters. Time domain parameter estimation is dealt with in detail; frequency domain and power spectrum procedures are also included. This work is intended for postgraduate students, researchers and engineers whose work involves nonlinear systems. Many examples, case studies and experimental identifications of real processes have been included.
