A methodology for identification of Narmax models applied to Diesel engines
Abstract
In this paper a nonlinear system identification methodology based on a polynomial NARMAX model representation is considered. Algorithms for structure selection and parameter estimation are presented and evaluated. The goal of the procedure is to provide a nonlinear model characterized by a low complexity and that can be efficiently used in industrial applications. The methodology is illustrated by means of an automotive case study, namely a variable geometry turbocharged diesel engine. The nonlinear model representing the relation between the variable geometry turbine command and the intake manifold air pressure is identified from data and validated.
