Abstract

In this paper we propose a method how to automatically utilize continuous-time Modelica models directly in nonlinear state estimators. The approach is based on an extended FMI 2.0 Co-Simulation Interface that interacts with the state estimation algorithm implemented in a Modelica library. Besides a short introduction to Kalman Filter based state estimation; we give details on a generic interface to interact with FMUs in Modelica; an implementation of nonlinear state estimation based on this interface; and the Dymola prototype used for the evaluation. Finally we show first results in a tire load estimation application for our robotic electric research platform ROMO.
