Continuous-time Wiener system identification
A continuous-time Wiener system is identified. The system consists of a linear dynamic subsystem and a memoryless nonlinear one connected in a cascade. The input signal is a stationary white Gaussian random process. The system is disturbed by stationary white random Gaussian noise. Both subsystems are identified from input-output observations taken at the input and output of the whole system. The a priori information is very small and, therefore, resulting identification problems are nonparametric. The impulse response of the linear Dart is recovered by a correlation method, while the nonlinear characteristic is estimated with the help of the nonparametric kernel regression method. The authors prove convergence of the proposed identification algorithms and examine their convergence rates.
