Mathematical formulation

  • True model:

State variable Deterministic model

  • perator

System noise (random variable)

SLIDE 4

Mathematical formulation

  • Observational model:
  • bservation

Observation

  • perator

Observation noise

Mathematical formulation

  • Goal: find out the variance of and ,

which are denoted by Q and R.

  • This is different from the model error

problem.

Belanger's method

  • Construct a new set of “observations” for Q

and R from the existing observations:

Observation at time t_n Observation at time t_{n-l}

Belanger's method

This newly constructed observations satisfy:

  • 1,
  • 2, can be computed

recursively.

Belanger's method

Process: 1, primary filter (Kalman filter) 2, secondary filter: implement Kalman filter on the

  • bservation model:

to estimate Q and R.

A modified version of Belanger's method

  • Starting from the relation:
  • consider
  • and solve it directly using least-square

method.

SLIDE 10

A modified version of Belanger's method

  • Without computing the variance of the

newly constructed observations, it is computationally cheaper than the original Belanger's method.

Numerical results

  • Results with Lorenz96 model:
  • 20 observation, R=I, Q=0.5dt
