Identification of block-oriented systems in the presence of nonparametric input nonlinearities of switch and backlash types

The problem of identifying Hammerstein-like systems containing dynamic nonlinearities, of the switch or backlash types, is considered. Interestingly, the nonlinearity borders are nonparametric borders (i.e. of unknown structure) and so are allowed to be noninvertible and cross each other. A semi-parametric identification approach is developed to estimate the linear subsystem parameters and m points on both nonlinearity borders. It relies on two main experiments designed so that during each one, the focus is on one lateral border exciting m specific points. Doing so, the initial nonparametric identification problem is decomposed into two simpler problems involving static parametric nonlinearities. The new problems are dealt with independently using least squares type estimators. It is formally shown that the experiments generate persistently exciting signals ensuring the consistency of all involved parameter estimators.
