Black box models based upon transfer characteristics express relationships between inlet x(t) and outlet y(t) of a system, for example

relationship between humidity of air (t) and moisture of dried material X(t)relationship between time course of temperature and concentration of microorganism relationship between inlet and outlet concentration in continuous chemical reactorrelationship between a valve closing and pressure in a pipeline (water hammer) relationship between temperature of fluid and recorded signal of thermocouple

At nonlinear systems even a small disturbance of stimulus function can cause instabilities (deterministic chaos). This subject (nonlinearities, chaos, strange attractors…) will be subject of the following lecture. Nothing like this exist at linear systems, where any relatinship b etween stimulus function and response can be expressed by linear integral relationship – by convolution

Response y(t) is a convolution of stimulus x(t) and transfer function E(t), symbolic form

y=E*x

For explanation, see next slide…

E(t)

Let us consider special case of stimulus function x(t) in form of infinitely short impulse with unit surface. This is so called delta function (t) equal zero for t0 and infinity for t=0. Integral from minus to plus infinity is 1, therefore the convolution integral is directly the E(t) function:

( ) ( ) ( ) ( )y t E t d E t

This is why the E(t) is

called impulse responsex=(t)

Impulse response can be determined experimentally by measuring response to to a short impulse, for example to an instantaneous injection of trace to the inlet. Impulse response E(t) is the measured concentration of tracer at outlet..

General stimulus function can be replaced by a sequence of infinitely many short pulses with area x()d. Each impulse is associated with the impulse response shifted by the time delay and multiplied by the area x()d (linear system –response is directly proportional to input). Sum of these elementary responses is the convolution integral E * x

There exist two principle problems

Convolution, when characteristic of system E(t) and time course of inlet x(t) are know. Response y(t) is obtained by integration. At each time t it is necessary to calculate a new integral.

Deconvolution, when input x(t) and output y(t) are known and impuls function E(t) should be calculated (system identification). In this case it is necessary to solve integral equation.

A suitable tool for solution of these two problems is Fourier transform

Fourier transformation

Duchamp

NAP3

The functions x(t),y(t),E(t) could have been expressed by ordinary polynomials (see regression) and the convolution as a relationship between coefficients of these polynomials. However, each polynomial goes to infinity for t and regression polynomials of order greater than 7 cannot be identified with sufficient accuracy (this is because the functions 1,t,t2,t3,…,t7,t8 are of a similar shape and therefore are not sufficiently linearly independent. Then the solution of coefficients is distorted by round off errors).

Instead of common polynomials it is better to use orthogonal functions, for example orthogonal polynomials or goniometric functions and to approximate functions x,y,E by Fourier expansions

But what does it mean the orthogonality of functions Pm(t) and Pn(t)?

You should know it, see previous lecture ☺.

Page 8: NUMERICAL ANALYSIS of PROCESSES NAP3 Black box models and experimental identification of linear systems characteristics: Transfer characteristics. Volterra.

For example goniometric functions (sin, cos) are orthogonal in the interval (-1,1).

NAP3 OrthogonalityFunctions Pm(t) and Pn(t) are orthogonal, if integral of their product (across some interval) is zero

functions cos are even orthonormal, because integral is normalised

(equal one)

integral of product is called scalar product

Page 9: NUMERICAL ANALYSIS of PROCESSES NAP3 Black box models and experimental identification of linear systems characteristics: Transfer characteristics. Volterra.

Coefficients of expansion can be evaluated without solving a system of algebraic equations (compare with the regression analysis using common polynomials). Application of orthogonal functions instead of P0(t)=1, P1(t)=t, P2(t)=t2,… is usually advantageous also in regression analysis, where only few initial terms of Fourier series is used. Legendre, Tschebyschev, Hermite or Laguerrovy generalised polynomials are used (differences follow from different definition of scalar product, for example Laguerre

polynomials have integration interval <0,>, Legendre <-1,1>. Selection of suitable orthogonal polynomial is therefore determined by the definition interval of regression function: for<0,>, Laguerre polynomials, for <-,> Hermite and for finite interval Legendre or Tschebyschev polynomials).

In the following text only the Fourier expansion based upon goniometric functions will be discussed 2( ) imt

and inverse transforms)!

Beauty of FT is in the simplification of difficult operations

1. integrals of products (convolution or correlation) are transformed to product of transformed functions

2. derivative of function is transformed to multiplication by frequency (see next lecture)

3. easy inverse transformation (formard/backward transforms can be realised by the same procedure)

Negative frequencies?NAP3

What is relationship between the index of a FT coefficient and frequency?

Example: 8 points sampled with frequency 1 Hz, =1s. Nyquist (max.) frequency is 0.5 Hz. Corresponding FT vector has NINE coefficients (c-4,c-3,…c0,…c3,c4) for frequencies (-4/8,-3/8,-2/8,-1/8,0,1/8,2/8,3/8,4/8). However, FT coefficients of positive and negative Nyquist frequencies are identical (c-4=c4) so that the number of FT coefficients is in fact only eight (as it should be!). These coefficients are usually arranged in a vector starting with ZERO frequency, i.e. (c0, c-1, c-2, c-3,c4=c-4, c3, c2 ,,c1), see MATLAB.

When transforming a real function it is sufficient to consider only positive (or negative) frequencies because FT coefficients of positive and negative frequencies are not independent (they are complex conjugated). FT is 1:1 transformation, therefore 8 real numbers are transformed to another 8 real numbers, which are real and imaginary parts of only 4 Fourier coefficients.

Cosine components of positive and negative frequencies are identical

Sine components of positive and negative frequencies have opposite signs

NAP3 Discrete FFT (Fast FT)

There is no difference between DFT and FFT. The FFT is very fast

algorithm which can be applied as soon as the number of point is a

power of two, e.g. N= 512,1024,2048,…

Note, that FFT is transformation of N-numbers ck to N-coefficients, corresponding to sampling interval =1s. You should take it into account when calculating convolution and correlation.

MATLAB (n=1 až N)FFT (n=-N/2 up to N/2 index expresses frequency)

It seems that MATLAB defines FFT in a different way and operates with frequencies which are even higher than the Nyquist frequency. Nevertheless the both expressions are correct and the calculated coefficients are identical (only sorted in a different way). This is a consequence of periodicity of goniometric functions (exp(2i(k-1))=1), and thus for example

FFT MATLAB example PSDA typical application of FFT is identification of dominating frequencies, masked by a random noise. Let us con sider sampl;ed with frequency 1000 Hz. Let us generate signal with components at frequencies 50 Hz and 120 Hz superposed with random noise of zero mean value:

t = 0:0.001:0.6;x = sin(2*pi*50*t)+sin(2*pi*120*t);

y = x + 2*randn(size(t));

It is probably difficult to distinguish basic frequencies in time record of signal. Let us transform to frequency space using N=512 points and FFT:

Y = fft(y,512);

Power spectrum

Pyy = Y.* conj(Y) / 512;

It is sufficient to evaluate only one half of points (due to symmetry: y(t) is a real function and the Fourier coefficients of negative frequencies are conjugated with the coefficients of positive frequencies)

Many specific applications in industry (fluidised combustion, furnace, reactors, abspní spalování, pece, reaktory, absorbers, columns, filters, aeration tanks, mills, containers) are discussed in monography Thýn J.,Žitný R.:Analysis and diagnostics of industrial processes by radiotracers.

FFT identification E(t)NAP3

xf=fft(x);yf=fft(y);ef=yf./xf;e=ifft(ef)/dt;plot(t,e)

Impulse response of identified system can be obtained by deconvolution, by application of FFT to input and output (vectors of Fourier coefficients xf(1:1024), yf(1:1024)), Fourier coefficients of function E(t) are calculateds as ration of coefficients yf(i)/xf(i) and impulse response is obtained by inverse FFT

The result is a wildly oscillating function having little in common with the theoretical impulse response (blue curve n=4; tm=2; et=n^n.*t.^(n-1)/(factorial(n-1)*tm^n).*exp(-n.*t/tm); ). This is because deconvolution is a badly conditioned problem when even a small deviation of the output signal y(t) will cause a large deviation of solution. Noise is possible to suppress by resetting higher frequencies, eg

theoretical impulse response

FFT identification E(t) WienerNAP3

In the previous case, we filter the noise from the resulting impulse response. Maybe a little more correct is to filter noise just from the output function y(t) by suppressing the higher frequency coefficients in the Fourier transform yf using Wiener filtration (its theoretical description can be found eg in Teukolski et al.: Numerical Recipes). Again, procedure is based on the graph PSD of the noisy response, from which the frequency of "useful" signal and the frequency which is to be suppressed are estimated.

FFT signal time delayNAP3

Transformations of “time shifted" signal is realized only by multiplying FT by exponential. This facilitates the modeling of systems in which, for example trasport delay occurs (which causes problems for the numerical solution of differential equations).
