Self-error learning framework-based algorithm for parameter recovery of extended Wiener–Hammerstein systems subject to quantised measurements

In this study, a novel estimation scheme is proposed for identifying extended Wiener–Hammerstein systems with hysteresis nonlinearity subject to quantised measurements. The proposed scheme is established in a self-error learning framework to achieve high-performance parameter estimation compared with classic error feedback learning estimation algorithms. Initially, the useful identification data can be extracted from contaminated system data by introducing an adaptive filter. Then, with the help of the filtered data, the identification error expression used to establish the estimator is derived. Subsequently, an online compensation estimation error variable is proposed to eliminate the effect of the regression vector on the convergence performance. A new adaptive law is designed with adaptive recursive gain, considering the compensation estimation error data and parameter initial error data. Under general persistent excitation (PE) condition, the PE condition of the regressor information is verified online, and the estimator convergence is strictly proven. Finally, the statistical results of two illustrated examples and a real-word example are provided to validate the positive features and effectiveness of the proposed estimation scheme. •Adaptive law is updated by using the self-error information rather than non-self-error data.•Cost function is established by right of the compensated error and initial error data.•The effect of regressor on estimator is remedied by considering a compensation matrix.•Introduced filter takes into account system prior knowledge and the performance is improved.
