Abstract

In many practical applications it might be desirable to excite only point at a time in an interconnection of multiple dynamic subsystems (e.g. large-scale system). Therefore multiple experiments need to be combined to successfully identify one or more subsystems in the network of subsystems. This papers illustrates how the identification of a linear subsystem of a dynamical network containing one or more nonlinear subsystems can result in biased estimates when multiple experiments are combined using the Best Linear Approximation (BLA) based approach.

Highlights

  • Large scale mechanical systems consisting of many components, the electrical grid, biological systems or industrial plant can be interpreted as the interconnection of multiple subsystems, i.e. a dynamic network setting.The identification of linear dynamical networks has received quite some attention over the last years focusing on e.g. network structure detection [1, 2, 3], identification of one or more subsystems in the network [3, 4, 5, 6], input selection [7], and multiple noise frameworks [8, 6]

Summary

Introduction

Large scale mechanical systems consisting of many components, the electrical grid, biological systems or industrial plant can be interpreted as the interconnection of multiple subsystems, i.e. a dynamic network setting. Multiple experiments need to be combined to successfully identify of one or more subsystems in the network This papers illustrates how the identification of a linear subsystem of a dynamical network containing one or more nonlinear subsystems can result in biased estimates when multiple experiments are combined using the Best Linear Approximation (BLA) based approach presented in [12]. A dynamic network (see Figure 1) consists of a total of L nodes, representing internal variables of the network, which are interconnected with other nodes by (nonlinear) dynamic systems. A node signal, denoted wi(t), is obtained as the sum of the outputs of the incoming (nonlinear).
