Abstract:This paper presents the design and implementation of a wave excitation force estimator based on the cubature Kalman filter (CKF) for a CETO 6, a submersed wave energy converter controlled using three power take-off systems attached to the tether lines. Wave excitation force estimation is required by many advanced wav energy converter (WEC) control approaches. However, contrary to the single degree-of-freedom (1-DoF) case, the literature on the design of wave estimators is quite scarce for devices with multiple… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
