Central suboptimal H∞ filtering for nonlinear polynomial systems with multiplicative noise

This paper presents the central finite-dimensional H_∞ filter for nonlinear polynomial systems with multiplicative noise, that is suboptimal for a given threshold γ with respect to a modified Bolza-Meyer quadratic criterion including the attenuation control term with the opposite sign. In contrast to the previously obtained results, the paper reduces the original H_∞ filtering problem to the corresponding optimal H₂ filtering problem, using the technique proposed in 1]. The paper presents the central suboptimal H_∞ filter for the general case of nonlinear polynomial systems with multiplicative noise, based on the optimal H₂ filter given in 31]. The central suboptimal H_∞ filter is also derived in a closed finite-dimensional form for third (and less) degree polynomial system states. Numerical simulations are conducted to verify performance of the designed central suboptimal filter for nonlinear polynomial systems against the central suboptimal H_∞ filters available for polynomial systems with state-independent noise and the corresponding linearized system.
