摘要

An iterated unscented Kalman filter (IUKF) based method is presented for multiple Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) signals separation problem in wireless sensor network (WSN). The IUKF-based method is easy to handle non-stationary sources in nonlinear models. By conducting experiments on instantaneous mixtures of several real SHM signals, the proposed method is compared with a traditional non-stationary blind source separation (BSS) algorithm. The simulation results show that our method has better performance. Considering the convenience to transmit sigma points between sensor nodes, the IUKF-based one can cast to multiple SHM signals collaborative processing in distributed WSN.
