Dynamic Event-Triggered State Estimation for Power Harmonics With Quantization Effects: A Zonotopic Set-Membership Approach

This paper is concerned with the set-membership state estimation problem for power harmonics under quantization effects by using the dynamic event-triggered mechanism. The underlying system is subject to unknown but bounded noises that are confined to a sequence of zonotopes. The data transmissions are realized over a digital communication channel, where the measurement signals are quantized by a logarithmic-uniform quantizer before being transmitted from the sensors to the remote estimator. Moreover, a dynamic event-triggered mechanism is introduced to reduce the number of unnecessary data transmissions, thereby relieving the communication burden. The objective of this paper is to design a zonotopic set-membership estimator for power harmonics with guaranteed estimation performance in the simultaneous presence of 1) unknown but bounded noises, 2) quantization effects and 3) dynamic event-triggered executions. By resorting to the mathematical induction method, a unified set-membership estimation framework is established, within which a family of zonotopic sets is first derived that contains the estimation errors and, subsequently, the estimator gain matrices are designed by minimizing the <tex-math notation="LaTeX">F</tex-math> -radii of these zonotopic sets. The effectiveness of the proposed estimation scheme is verified by a series of simulation experiments.
