Abstract

This article is concerned with the proportional-integral-observer (PIO)-based fusion estimation problem for a class of artificial neural networks (ANNs) equipped with multiple sensors, which are constrained by bandwidth and subjected to unknown-but-bounded noises (UBBNs). For the purpose of efficient information communication, an approach known as the one-bit encoding mechanism (OBEM) is proposed that enables the encoding of scalar data using merely a single bit. Then, a local PIO-based set-membership estimator is devised for each sensor node, with the aim of achieving the desired estimation task while considering the possible data distortion due to OBEM and the existence of UBBNs. Subsequently, sufficient conditions are established to ensure the existence and effectiveness of the PIO-based set-membership estimator. Moreover, to enhance the global estimation performance, an ellipsoid-based fusion rule is introduced for all local PIO-based set-membership estimators. The performance of fusion estimation is then analyzed using set theory and the optimization method, leading to the determination of relevant parameters. Finally, the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed estimation algorithm are demonstrated through a simulation example.
