This thesis studies state observers based on sliding mode variable structure systems, as an alternative solution to the interactive multiple model algorithm (IMM) based on Kalman and Particle Filters, for the robust estimation of position, velocity, and acceleration of a high maneuverability air target, such as anti-ship missiles or combat aircraft, despite model uncertainties or disturbances and using fire control radar’s position or velocity measurements corrupted by glint noise. In chapter I a study of the state of the art is done, exposing the problem and the current solution to it. Subsequently, in chapter II a study is made of the different dynamic and measurement models of high maneuverability air targets existing in the literature, proposing at the end of the chapter an uncertain linear model of the air target (anti-ship missile) and presenting a simulation of the complete trajectory of it. In chapter III the theory of sliding mode variable structure systems applied to state observers is exposed, the design of the most representative observers is carried out, and simulations of the air target’s estimated trajectory are conducted, comparing at the end of the chapter the results of all state observers based on established performance criteria. Results show that in the absence of noise the Edwards-Spurgeon observer (ESSMO) and Walcott-Zak observer (WZSMO) and Adaptive Robust Exact Differentiator obtain the best performances. In addition, in order to use the observers and differentiators mentioned above a new filtering algorithm is proposed, named Uniform Robust Exact filtering differentiator (UREDF), which combines Levant’s standard filtering with a non-linear median intra pulse filter. It is important to state that the performance of this algorithm was demonstrated along with the writing of this thesis in the manuscript “Highly Maneuverable Target Tracking Under Glint Noise via Uniform Robust Exact Filtering Differentiator with Intra Pulse Median Filter”, which has been published in the IEEE journal “Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems” by Dr. Gustavo Pérez and myself. In this manuscript, it is concluded that the UREDF shows a superior performance than other state-of-the-art estimation and filtering algorithms such as the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF), Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF), Cubature Kalman Filter (CKF), Particle Filter (PF), and the Robust Student-t based Kalman Filter. In chapter IV two solutions to the studied problem are proposed, being the first solution (SMO1) based on the combination of the Uniform robust exact filtered differentiator’s (UREDF) filtering capability and the Adaptive Robust Exact Differentiator’s robustness, exactness, and convergence speed capabilities for state variable estimation. On the other hand, the second solution (SMO2) involves state variable estimation of a pulse-doppler tracking radar by filtering both position and doppler velocity measurements with Uniform Robust Exact Filtered Differentiators (UREDF) and estimating state variables with the Walcott-Zak Sliding Mode Observer (WZSMO). Also, an adaptive robust exact differentiator (ARED) is used to provide the estimated input control vector necessary for the WZSMO to work. In chapter V, MATLAB® simulations were conducted, proving that the sliding mode solutions proposed in chapter IV have better glint noise filtering and robustness capabilities that the Interactive Multiple Model (IMM) algorithm during the misil’s course changes and terminal maneuver. Finally, in chapter VI is proposed the implementation solution in a National Instruments’ PXI and in chapter VII conclusions and future work remarks are given.
