Matlab Assignment

You are given a Matlab program of raw data that used to estimate the unknown force with the
accelerance sensor. The origin program is using 11 sensors (sensors 2,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12 and
14) on the plate to determine the unknown force on corner 1.
The result shows that the unknown force identification is almost same with the real force
applied on it.

The red colour indicate the real force while the blue colour indicate the estimated force on it.

From here, it can be seen that the estimated force is very close to the real force.
Now, the sensors 2,4 and 5 are faulty.
The red colour indicate the real force while the blue colour indicate the estimated force on it.

From here, you can see the result is far away from the real force.

Task

You are required to use Kalman Filter in Matlab and write a program to enhance the
force identification.

Hint: You can use the Kalman Filter in this two type direction. First, use the Kalman Filter
to predict the result when the sensor is malfunction. Second, use the Kalman Filter to
identify which sensors is faulty.
