Abstract This paper addresses the problem of optimal H2 filtering for a class of continuous-time periodic stochastic systems with periodic sampled measurements. The class of admissible filters consist of deterministic continuoustime periodic systems with finite jumps. The optimal solution of the considered optimization problem is obtained by integrating a suitable generalized continuous-time Riccati equation with finite jumps. To illustrate the proposed filtering strategy, we consider a problem of field monitoring where sensors are distributed on a rectangular region in order to estimate the state of a diffusion process. We consider that the sensors and the filter communicate over a communication channel and we assume that the communication channel induces some communication constraints. More specifically, we consider a medium access constraint under which the shared network can only accommodate a limited number of simultaneous communications between components. & 2015 The Franklin Institute.

1. Introduction In this paper, we will address the problem of optimal filtering for a class of continuous-time periodic stochastic systems with discrete-time measurements (sampled measurements). More specifically, we consider a class of Itô differential equations with periodic coefficients and periodic sampled measurements. This class of stochastic models are very suitable for modeling systems subject to random parametric perturbations in applications that require data sampling (as it is the case of many actual processes). Some results concerning the filtering of linear stochastic systems (with continuous-time measurements) in the presence of multiplicative noise may be found for instance in [9,10,19,20]. H2 filtering results for linear time-invariant stochastic systems with sampled measurements were given in [7]. As reported in [18], the H2 sampled-filtering problem is closely related to the problem of H2 filtering under limited bandwidth constraints in networked control systems. Hence, sampled data filtering results may be extended to limited bandwidth systems. In [18], the authors adopted a deterministic point of view and considered the problem of H2 filtering of linear deterministic time-invariant systems under sampling. They first derived a discrete-time equivalent system that adequately incorporates the inter-sampling behavior of the original continuous-time plant. Then, they proposed a sub-optimal solution based on some sufficient linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) conditions. In our case, the class of admissible filters consist of deterministic continuous-time periodic systems with finite jumps and an arbitrary dimension of the state space (we will clarify later why we highlighted the deterministic nature of the proposed filter). In order to quantify the quality of the estimation achieved by an admissible filter, we introduce a performance criterion expressed in terms of the mean square of the deviation of the estimated signal zf(t) from the value of the signal z(t) which must be estimated. The filtering problem is then formulated in an H2 filtering setting. The proposed filtering procedure can be resumed as follows: (i) when no measurement is available, the state estimate is computed by integrating the deterministic part of the system model; (ii) when a measurement is received, the filter makes an impulsive correction on the state estimate. Such a procedure has been initially presented in [14] where the impulsive correction gain of the filter is obtained by integrating a continuous-time Riccati equation with finite jumps. Note however that in [14], the author does not consider the case with state-dependent noise affecting both the state-space equation and/or the measurement equation. Hence, a direct extension of the results in [14] to the case of stochastic systems with state-dependent noise will lead to a filter which is hardly implementable because it incorporates the multiplicative white noise perturbations which affect the given plant. That is why, for H2 type control problems and H2 type filtering problems for controlled systems with multiplicative white noise perturbations only suboptimal solutions were derived based on solvability of some systems of LMIs. For the readers convenience we refer to [10] and the references therein. Also, we can refer to [13] where the case of time-varying systems is considered. In our approach, the inconvenient due to the presence of the state multiplicative white noise perturbations in the state equation and/or in the measurement equation is overcome by involving the unique periodic solution of a suitable differential (algebraic) Lyapunov-type equation associated to the given plant. A similar technique was used in other filtering problems in [3,20]. In the present paper, an optimal solution is proposed and a corresponding deterministic (and

5987

hence practically implementable) filter is constructed. The optimal solution (the filter gain) of the considered optimization problem is here also obtained by integrating a suitable generalized continuous-time Riccati equation with finite jumps. The particularity of this Riccati equation is that its coefficients depend on the unique periodic solution of a suitably defined Lyapunov-type differential equation or an algebraic Lyapunov equation (in the case of time-invariant dynamic systems). This represents the key point in getting an optimal (and not only a sub-optimal) solution. It is worth mentioning that the simplest case where the methodology developed in this paper is applicable (while other approaches already existing in the literature cease to provide acceptable results) is the one where the signal which has to be estimated is generated by a deterministic linear time invariant system affected by additive white noise perturbations, while the available measurements are affected by state-multiplicative white noise perturbations and additionally the coefficients of the measured output are periodic sequences. This paper is organized as follows: Section 2 gives the mathematical model of the considered class of systems and describes the problem setting. Section 3 gives some preliminaries and auxiliary results. The main results are given in Section 4. Some numerical experiments are included in Section 5, while Section 6 contains some concluding  remarks.      Notations: In block matrices, ⋆ indicates symmetric terms: BAT CB ¼ BAT ⋆C ¼ ⋆A CB .

Problem formulation Consider the time-varying linear system G having the state space representation given by 8 > < dxðtÞ ¼ A0 ðtÞxðtÞ dt þ A1 ðtÞxðtÞ dwðtÞ þ BðtÞ dvðtÞ; t Z 0 yðkhÞ ¼ ½C 0 ðkÞ þ C 1 ðkÞwd ðkÞxðkhÞ þ Dd ðkÞvd ðkÞ; ð1Þ > : zðtÞ ¼ C ðtÞxðtÞ z

where xðtÞ A Rn is the state of the system, yðkhÞA Rny are the measurements at the discrete-time instances t k ¼ kh, k A Zþ ¼ f0; 1; …;g (h40 being the sampling period); zðtÞ A Rnz is the signal to be estimated. In Eq. (1), fwðtÞgt Z 0 , fvðtÞgt Z 0 , fwd ðkÞgk A Zþ , fvd ðkÞgk A Zþ are stochastic processes on a given probability space ðΩ; F ; PÞ satisfying the following assumptions: (H1) (i) fwðtÞgt Z 0 is a 1-dimensional standard Wiener process with E½wðtÞ ¼ 0 and E½ðwðtÞ wðsÞÞ2  ¼ jt  sj, for all t; s A Rþ . (ii) fvðtÞgt Z 0 is a mv-dimensional standard Wiener process satisfying E½vðtÞ ¼ 0, E ½ðvðtÞ vðsÞÞðvðtÞ  vðsÞÞT  ¼ Vðt  sÞ, for all t Z s Z 0. (iii) fwd ðkÞgk Z 0 is a sequence of independent random variables with zero mean and variance 1. (iv) fvd ðkÞgk Z 0 is a sequence of mvd -dimensional independent random vectors with zero mean  and E vd ðkÞvTd ðkÞ ¼ V d , for all k A Zþ . (v) The processes fwðtÞgt Z 0 , fvðtÞgt Z 0 , fwd ðkÞgk Z 0 and fvd ðkÞgk Z 0 are independent stochastic processes. As usual, E½ stands for the mathematical expectation and the superscript T denotes the transposition of a matrix or of a vector. Regarding the coefficients of the system (1) we make the assumption:

5988

(H2) (i) t-Aj : R-Rnn , j¼ 0,1, t-B : R-Rnmv , t-C z : R-Rnz n are continuous and periodic matrix valued functions of period θ40. (ii) fCj ðkÞgk A Z  Rny n , j¼ 0,1, fDd ðkÞgk A Z  Rny mvd are periodic sequences of period θd A Z, θd 41. (iii) θθd h is a rational number. Remark 1. (a) Even if the system (1) works for t Z 0, the domain of definition of its coefficients can be extended in a natural way to the whole real axis due to the periodicity property. That is why we wrote t A R in the assumption (H2) (i) and k A Z in assumption (H2) (ii). (b) Since a constant function can be regarded as a periodic function of arbitrary period, we deduce that if in Eq. (1) we have Aj ðtÞ ¼ Aj , j¼ 0,1, BðtÞ ¼ B, C z ðtÞ ¼ Cz , t A R, then the assumption (H2) (iii) is automatically satisfied. In the general case, when the system (1) is timevarying, the assumption (H2) (iii) may be satisfied by a suitable choice of the sampling period h40. Our goal is to design a linear system Gf (usually named filter) that is fed to the input with the measured values y(kh), k ¼ 0; 1; …, generates a signal zf(t) which is the best estimation of the output z(t) of the given system (1). In this work, we consider Gf filters having the state space representation described by a linear system with finite jumps of the form 8 dx ðtÞ ¼ Af ðtÞxf ðtÞ dt; khot r ðk þ 1Þh > < f xf ðkhþ Þ ¼ Afd ðkÞxf ðkhÞ þ Bfd ðkÞyðkhÞ; k A Zþ ð2Þ > : z ðtÞ ¼ C ðtÞx ðtÞ; t Z 0: f f f The quality of the estimation achieved by a filter Gf is measured by the following performance criterion: Z    1 t0 þτ  J Gf ¼ lim ð3Þ E jzðtÞ  zf ðtÞj2 dt: τ-1 τ t 0 Our investigation is performed under the assumption that the zero solution of the linear system dxðtÞ ¼ A0 ðtÞxðtÞ dt þ A1 ðtÞxðtÞ dwðtÞ is exponentially stable in mean square (ESMS). Regarding the filter Gf we make the assumption: (H3) (i) Af : R-Rnf nf , Cf : R-Rnz nf are continuous and periodic matrix valued functions of period θ.   (ii) Afd ðkÞ k A Z  Rnf nf , fBfd ðkÞgk A Z  Rnf nf are periodic sequences of period θd .

In the following F ad denotes the family of all linear systems with finite jumps of type (2) of arbitrary dimension nf Z 1 (of the corresponding state space) which satisfy the assumption (H3).  The problem of optimal filtering solved in this paper asks for the design of an admissible filter Gf which satisfies the following optimality condition:

 J Gf ¼ min JðGf Þ: ð5Þ Gf A F ad

In the time-invariant case, the optimal filtering problem (5) was solved in [7]. Coupling an admissible filter Gf A F ad to the system (1), we obtain the following system with finite jumps on the space Rn  Rnf : 8 dx ðtÞ ¼ A0cl ðtÞxcl ðtÞ dt þ A1cl ðtÞxcl ðtÞ dwðtÞ þ Bcl ðtÞ dvðtÞ; khot r ðk þ 1Þh > < cl xcl ðkhþ Þ ¼ ½Ad0cl ðkÞ þ Ad1cl ðkÞwd ðkÞxcl ðkhÞ þ Bdcl ðkÞvd ðkÞ; k A Zþ ð6Þ > : z ðtÞ ¼ zðtÞ z ðtÞ ¼ C ðtÞx ðtÞ; t Z 0 cl f cl cl T where xcl ðtÞ ¼ xT ðtÞ xTf ðtÞ and !

We shall see that the value of this limit depends neither on the initial time t0 nor on the initial states x0cl .

3. Preliminaries In this section we present several definitions and preliminary results which will be used to prove the main results of this work. For the readers convenient we shall point out several aspects specific to the time-varying case which cannot be derived mutatis-mutandis from the timeinvariant case. 3.1.

where fwðtÞgt Z 0 , fwd ðkÞgk Z 0 are independent stochastic processes satisfying the assumption (H1) (i, iii). For each t Z 0, Ht stands for the s-algebra generated by the random variables w(s), wd(k), 0 r sr t, 0 r k such that kh r t. In Eq. (11), t-M j : R-Rmm , j ¼ 0,1, are bounded continuous matrix valued functions and fM dj ðkÞgk A Z  Rmm , j¼ 0,1, are bounded sequences. Let t 0 Z 0, x0 A Rm and k0 Z 0 be the integer defined by ðk0  1Þhot 0 r k0 h. Applying Theorem 5.2.1 in [17] on each interval ½t 0 ; k0 h and ½kh; ðk þ 1Þh, k Z k0 , we obtain that Eq. (11) has a unique solution xðtÞ ¼ xðt; t 0 ; x0 Þ with xðt 0 Þ ¼ x0 and with the following properties: (a) limt-khþ xðtÞ ¼ xkhþ ¼ ðM d0 ðkÞ þ wd ðkÞM d1 ðkÞÞxðkhÞ, for all k Z k0 ; (b) x(t) is Ht -measurable for all t Z t 0 ; (c) t-xðtÞ is left a.s. continuous in any t with t Z t 0 . Definition 1. We say that the zero solution of Eq. (11) is ESMS or equivalently, Eq. (11) is ESMS, if there exist β Z 1, α40 such that   E jxðt; t 0 ; x0 Þj2 r βe  αðt  t0 Þ jx0 j2 for all t Z t 0 Z 0, x0 A Rm .

  Let YðtÞ ¼ E xðtÞxT ðtÞ , xðtÞ ¼ xðt; t 0 ; x0 Þ be a solution of Eq. (11). Applying Itô formula, we obtain that t↦YðtÞ is a solution of the linear differential equation with finite jumps 8 Y_ ðtÞ ¼ M 0 ðtÞYðtÞ þ YðtÞM T0 ðtÞ þ M 1 ðtÞYðtÞM T1 ðtÞ > > < 1 X ð12Þ þ Yðkh Þ ¼ M dj ðkÞYðkhÞM Tdj ðkÞ; k ¼ k0 ; k0 þ 1; … > > : j¼0

khot r ðk þ 1Þh, and satisfies the initial condition Yðt 0 Þ ¼ x0 xT0 , where k0 is the integer defined by ðk 0  1Þhot 0 r k0 h:

ð13Þ

One sees that Eq. (12) is a differential equation with finite jumps on the space S m of the m  m symmetric matrices. For any H A S m we denote Yðt; t 0 ; HÞ the solution of Eq. (12) satisfying the initial condition Yðt 0 ; t 0 ; HÞ ¼ H. Definition 2. Let I  R be a right unbounded interval. We say that the zero solution of the differential equation with jumps (12) is exponentially stable on the interval I, or equivalently the differential equation with jumps (12) is exponentially stable on the interval I if there exist β^ Z 1, ^ α40 (possible depending upon I) such that ^  t0 Þ ^  αðt J Yðt; t 0 ; HÞ J r βe JH J

for all t Z t 0 ; t; t 0 A I, H A S m , J  J being the spectral norm of a matrix.

Remark 2. It is obvious that if the linear differential equation with finite jumps (12) is exponentially stable on some right unbounded interval I then it is also exponentially stable on any subinterval I1  I, but it is not sure that it is exponentially stable on the whole real axis R. However, if t-M j ðtÞ; j ¼ 0; 1 are periodic functions of period θ and fM dj ðkÞgk A Z ; j ¼ 0; 1 are periodic sequences of period θd Z 1 and if θ; θd h satisfy the assumption (H2) (iii) then it can be proved that if the differential equation with finite jumps (12) is exponentially stable on a right unbounded interval I, then it is exponentially stable on the whole real axis.

Proposition 2. Under the assumption (H1) (i), (iii), the following are equivalent: (i) the Itô differential equation with finite jumps (11) is ESMS; (ii) the differential equation with finite jumps (12) is exponentially stable on the interval ½0; 1Þ. The proof may be done by direct calculations. The details are omitted for shortness. Let us consider the affine differential equation with finite jumps: 8 Y_ ðtÞ ¼ M 0 ðtÞYðtÞ þ YðtÞM T0 ðtÞ þ M 1 ðtÞYðtÞM T1 ðtÞ þ SðtÞ > > < 1 X þ Yðkh Þ ¼ M dj ðkÞYðkhÞM Tdj ðkÞ þ Sd ðkÞ; k AZ > > :

is the Lyapunov-type operator defined by the pair ðM 0 ðtÞ; M 1 ðtÞÞ. Invoking for example the developments from Chapter 3 of [4] we deduce that ðt; sÞ↦Tðt; sÞ : R  R-BðS m Þ verify the following initial value problem on BðS m Þ: 8 < d T ðt; sÞ ¼ Lðt ÞT ðt; sÞ dt ð17Þ : Tðs; sÞ ¼ I Sm

where I Sm is the identity operator on S m and BðS m Þ is the Banach algebra of linear operators on the space S m . The solutions of the differential equation (15) satisfy Xðt; t 0 ; X 0 Þ ¼ Tðt; t 0 ÞX 0 for all t; t 0 A R, X 0 A S m . Employing for example Corollary 3.8 from [5] we may conclude that the differential equation (15) generates a positive evolution on S m . This means that Tðt; sÞX Z 0, for all t Z s, if X Z 0. Based on the uniqueness of the solution of the problem with given initial value (17) we may infer that if t↦LðtÞ is a periodic function of period θ, then Tðt þ kθ; t 0 þ kθÞ ¼ Tðt; t 0 Þ for all t; t 0 A R; k A Z:

(19) we deduce that Y 1 ðkhÞ ¼ Y ðkhÞ, k A Z, which leads to Y 1 ðtÞ ¼ Y ðtÞ, khot rðk þ 1Þh, k A Z, which confirms the uniqueness of the bounded on R solution of Eq. (14). Thus (i) is proved.

Also, the equality Y ðkhÞ ¼ X ðkÞ, k A Z, yields   ^ Y ðk þ θÞh ¼ Y ðkhÞ for all k A Z: Let t A R be arbitrary such that t a jh, jA Z. This means that there exists k A Z with the property ^ ~ khotoðk þ 1Þh. Therefore, ðk þ θÞhot þ θoðk þ θ^ þ 1Þh. Writing Eq.

Thus, the proof is completed.□ variables of integration, that Y ðt þ θÞ

Remark 3. The assumption that all coefficients of the differential equation with finite jumps (14) are defined on the whole real axis is essential in order to have a unique bounded solution. Let us remark that if the coefficients of Eq. (14) would be defined on a left bounded interval ½a; 1Þ, then all its solutions are bounded if the zero solution of the corresponding linear differential equation of type (12) is exponentially stable. Let us assume that M l ðtÞ ¼ M l and SðtÞ ¼ S, for all t A R. Under these conditions we may assume without loss of generality that M l ðÞ and SðÞ are periodic functions of period θ ¼ θd h. Proposition 3 (iii) allows us to conclude that if M l ðtÞ ¼ M l , l¼ 0,1, and SðtÞ ¼ S for all t AR, and if fM dj ðkÞgk A Z , j¼ 0,1, fSd ðkÞgk A Z are periodic sequences of period θd , then the unique bounded on R solution of the differential equation (17) is periodic with period θd h. Furthermore, if θd ¼ 1 that is M dj ðkÞ ¼ M dj , j¼ 0,1, Sd ðkÞ ¼ Sd , for all k A Z, then the unique bounded on R solution of differential equation (17) is a periodic function of period h, and thus we recover the result proved in [7]. At the end of this subsection, let us consider the Itô differential equation (11) in the special case M d1 ðkÞ ¼ 0, M d0 ðkÞ ¼ I m for all k A Z. In this case, the solutions xðtÞ ¼ xðt; t 0 ; x0 Þ of Eq. (11) will also solve the Itô differential equation dxðtÞ ¼ M 0 ðtÞxðtÞ dt þ M 1 ðtÞxðtÞ dwðtÞ;

Corollary 4. Under the considered assumptions, the following are equivalent: (i) the zero solution of the differential equation (26) is ESMS; (ii) the zero solution of the differential equation (15) is exponentially stable on ½0; 1Þ. Furthermore, if t-M l ðtÞ; l ¼ 0; 1, are periodic functions of period θ40 then the assertions (i) and (ii) from above are equivalent to: (iii) If the zero solution of the linear differential equation (15) is exponentially stable on the whole real axis.

Let us consider now the affine differential equation Y_ ðtÞ ¼ LðtÞYðtÞ þ SðtÞ

ð27Þ

where L : R-BðS m Þ is the operator valued function defined via Eq. (16) and S : R-S m is a bounded and continuous matrix valued function. Applying Theorem 2.3.7 in [8] we have: Proposition 5. If the zero solution of the linear differential equation (15) is exponentially stable on the whole real axis, then the affine differential equation (27) has a unique bounded on R solution. This solution is given by Z t  Y ðtÞ ¼ Tðt; sÞSðsÞ ds: 1 

If LðÞ, SðÞ are periodic functions of period θ then, Y ðÞ is also a periodic function of the same period θ. Moreover, if SðtÞ Z 0, t A R, then Y ðtÞZ 0, t A R.

3.2. A class of differential equations with finite jumps of Riccati type An important role in the derivation of the state space representation of the optimal filter is played by a periodic solution of the following differential equation with finite jumps: (_ Y ðtÞ ¼ A0 ðtÞYðtÞ þ YðtÞAT0 ðtÞ þ QðtÞ  1 Yðkhþ Þ ¼ YðkhÞ YðkhÞC T0 ðkÞ  Rd ðkÞ þ C0 ðkÞYðkhÞCT0 ðkÞ ⋆ þ Qd ðkÞ; k A Z ð28Þ khot r ðk þ 1Þh, where the function t↦A0 ðtÞ and the sequence fC d ðkÞgk A Z occur in the state space representation of the system (1) and consequently they satisfy the assumption (H2). In Eq. (28), Q : R-S n is a continuous and θ-periodic function and fQd ðkÞgk A Z A S n , fRd ðkÞgk A Z A S ny are periodic sequences of period θd . We also assume that Rd ðkÞZ 0, Qd ðkÞZ 0 for all k A Z. A function Y : R-S n left continuous in each t 0 A R is a global solution of the differential equation (28) if Rd ðkÞ þ C 0 ðkÞYðkhÞC T0 ðkÞ is invertible for all k A Z and satisfies Eq.

In this case the corresponding linear differential equation with finite jumpsof type (4) is given by Eq. (29), where Ks is defined in Eq. (55). Thus, we may conclude that G f described by Eq. (54) belongs to 

F ad . It remains to show that among all the admissible filters, G f achieves the smallest value of  the cost functional (3). Let Gf A F ad be arbitrary but fixed. Let Y ðÞ be the unique θ~ periodic solution of the corresponding equation of type (10). If ! Y 11 ðtÞ Y 12 ðtÞ  Y ðtÞ ¼ ⋆ Y 22 ðtÞ such that Y 11 ðtÞA S n , Y 22 A S nf we define !

Remark 6. In order to compute the coefficients of the optimal filter we need to know the values ^ Ys(jh), 0r j r θ^  1, of the stabilizing and θperiodic solution of the differential equation with finite jumps of Riccati type (49). The main steps in the computation of the coefficients of the optimal filter are: ~ (i) one computes the unique θperiodic solution of the differential equation (48) or the unique solution of the algebraic equation (53) if it is the case; (ii) one construct the discrete-time Riccati equation:  1 Yðk þ 1Þ ¼ AðkÞYðkÞ⋆  AðkÞYðkÞCT0 ðkÞ R d ðkÞ þ C0 ðkÞYðkÞCT0 ðkÞ ⋆ þ Sd ðkÞ ð65Þ where we denoted 8 < AðkÞ ¼ ϕ0 ððk þ 1Þh; khÞ  R ðkþ1Þh : Sd ðkÞ ¼ kh ϕ0 ððk þ 1Þh; sÞ Q ðsÞ⋆ ds

5. Numerical experiments To illustrate the proposed filtering strategy, we consider here a problem of field monitoring (see [15,16,22] and the reference therein) that will be adapted to our setting. In this problem, sensors are distributed on a rectangular region in order to estimate the state of a diffusion process described by the following partial differential equation: ∂ξðs; tÞ ¼ ∇2 ξðs; t Þ ∂t

ð67Þ

with Dirichlet boundary conditions: ξðs; Þ ¼ 0;

s A ∂D

ð68Þ

where ξðs; tÞ is the state value at location s and time t, ∇ denotes the Laplace operator, and ∂D denotes the boundary of the rectangular region of interest D. We consider a spatially discretized approximation of (67) (with boundary conditions (68)) which can be simply generated by setting [15,16,22]: 2

  ξði þ 1; j; tÞ  2ξði; j; tÞ þ ξði 1; j; tÞ ξði; j þ 1; tÞ 2ξði; j; tÞ þ ξði; j 1; tÞ ∇2 ξðs; tÞs ¼ ði;jÞ þ d2 d2

ð69Þ

where i ¼ 0; 1; …; lh , j ¼ 0; 1; …; lv , lh þ 2 and lv þ 2 are the width and length of the considered rectangular region, d is the physical distance between the lattice points and ξð  1; j; tÞ ¼ ξðlh þ 1; j; tÞ ¼ ξði;  1; tÞ ¼ ξði; lv þ 1; tÞ ¼ 0 for all position indices i; j and time t. From Eqs. (67)–(69), one can deduce easily the evolution equations: d xð t Þ ¼ A 0 xð t Þ dt where xðtÞA Rnx , nx ¼ ðlh þ 1Þ  ðlv þ 1Þ, denotes the state vector xðtÞ ¼ ½ξð0; 0; tÞ ξð0; 1; tÞ ⋯ ξðlh ; lv ; tÞT and A0 can be directly computed from Eq. (69). In order to fit in with our setting, we introduce a process noise and a state-dependent noise yielding dxðtÞ ¼ A0 xðtÞ dt þ A1 xðtÞ dwðtÞ þ B dvðtÞ where A1 and B have been randomly generated. We assume that M sensors, Monx , are deployed to make measurements of the state. In our example, we choose lh ¼ lv ¼ 4 (hence nx ¼ 25) and M ¼ 10. The location of the sensors as well as the state variables in the rectangular field are illustrated in Fig. 1. We consider that the sensors and the filter communicate over a communication channel. We assume that the communication channel induces some communication constraints. More specifically, the constraint we deal with here is referred to in the literature as a medium access constraint. In this case, the shared network can only accommodate a limited number of simultaneous communications between components. In this context, it is only meaningful to specify a filter in conjunction with a communication policy which indicates the times at which the plant's sensors are to be granted medium access. This communication policy is known in the literature as communication sequence. The communication sequence specifies which sensors are able to send information to the filter at each time step. To meet this requirement, we use a periodic communication sequence [2,12] which can be described as follows. Suppose that there are q sensor nodes which are indexed from 1 to q, each node contains r sensors. Due to communication limitation, at each sampling time, only one sensor node is allowed to send the measurements to the filter. The sensor nodes communicate with the plant

Hence, the measurements of the state are done according to yðkhÞ ¼ C 0 ðkÞxðkhÞ where h40 is the sampling period and the matrices C0 ðk þ θd Þ ¼ C0 ðkÞ, k Z 0 are the measurements matrices corresponding to the communication sequence fsk gk Z 0 . In order to fit in with our setting, we introduce a measurement noise and a state-dependent noise leading to yðkhÞ ¼ ½C0 ðkÞ þ C 1 ðkÞwd ðkÞxðkhÞ þ Dd ðkÞvd ðkÞ where C1 ðk þ θd Þ ¼ C1 ðkÞ, Dd ðk þ θd Þ ¼ Dd ðkÞ, 8 k Z 0.

6. Conclusion In this paper, we have considered the problem of optimal H2 filtering for a class of continuous-time periodic stochastic systems with sampled measurements. The optimal filtering problem has been formulated and solved in a continuous-time systems with jumps setting. The solution of the considered optimization problem has been expressed in terms of the stabilizing solution of a suitable generalized Riccati differential equation. The numerical implementation of the obtained filter requires the use of methods which are quite standard.
