Abstract: This paper focuses on the state estimation for multi-sensor system with network delays and correlated noises. An orthogonal transformation method is applied to remove the correlations between different noises. For the problem of packet delays due to the unreliable network, a buffer with certain length is introduced to store the measurements, and the measurements are reordered using a timestamp in the buffer. Based on that, a novel sequential data fusion algorithm is proposed, by which the influence of the noise correlation and packet delays can be weakened effectively. Compared with the traditional sequential fusion method, the proposed algorithm has higher estimation accuracy. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.
