The aim of this work is to test an algorithm to estimate, in real time, the attitude of an artificial satellite using real data supplied by attitude sensors that are on board of the CBERS-2 satellite (China Brazil Earth Resources Satellite). The real-time estimator used in this work for attitude determination is the Unscented Kalman Filter. This filter is a new alternative to the extended Kalman filter usually applied to the estimation and control problems of attitude and orbit. This algorithm is capable of carrying out estimation of the states of nonlinear systems, without the necessity of linearization of the nonlinear functions present in the model. This estimation is possible due to a transformation that generates a set of vectors that, suffering a nonlinear transformation, preserves the same mean and covariance of the random variables before the transformation. The performance will be evaluated and analyzed through the comparison between the Unscented Kalman filter and the extended Kalman filter results, by using real onboard data.

The in-cylinder temperature information is critical for auto-ignition combustion control in diesel engines, but difficult to be directly accessed at low cost in production engines. Through investigating the thermodynamics of Tivc, cycle-by-cycle models are proposed in this paper for the estimation of in-cylinder temperature at the crank angle of intake valve closing (IVC), referred to as Tivc. An extended Kalman filter (EKF) based method was devised by utilizing the measurable temperature information from the intake and exhaust manifolds. Due to the fact that measured temperature signals by typical thermocouples have slow responses which can be modeled as first-order lags with varying time-constants, temperature signals need to be reconstructed in transient conditions. In the proposed EKF estimation method, this issue can be effectively addressed by analyzing the measurement errors and properly selecting the noises covariance matrices. The proposed estimation method was validated through a high-fidelity GT-power engine model.
