Kalman filter in Labview

I would like to know if anyone has developped a labview function for adaptive Kalman filtering.
I would not wish to use the MATLAB m-file function given the strict timing-requirements of my application.

The Kalman Filter is available in the NI System Identification toolkit.
I couldn't get my hands on the toolkit so don't know how it works.
Should be intuitive I hope.

Dear Kamasani
Are there any updates regarding the subject of this threat?
I also want to use one of Kalman filters for noise removal but till now I can not figure out how to create the input matrices for the state space and noise models.
Thank you

How is the Kalman filter estimator implemented in an MPC?

I have a physical process with 2 inputs, 4 states and 2 outputs. Two of the states are
measured while the other two needs to be estimated using kalman filter.I have
developed the controller (2 i/p-2 o/p) with an MPC. I can see the 4 states in the implemented
MPC, but how do I implement a K.filter required to estimate the states of the 2 unmeasured
states in the physical process. ...help help help...
Attached is the implemented MPC.vi for comments.

Hi Vicky,
I dont have Labview installed on this laptop, but I have implemented the Labview MPC on a distillation column. You have 2 blocks that are necessary for the MPC, one outside the loop and one inside. You can connect all the necesary settings, like the model, the control horizon, the kalman filter settings,... to the block outside the loop. I think the control for Kalman is called estimation parameters. There you select between no estimation, pole placement and Kalman filter. For the Kalman filter you have to give the controller 3 matrices, that define your Kalman filter, N, Q and R. These matrices are related to your noise model, I don't know the exact theory unfortunately.

Accelerometer + Gyro Kalman Filter

Hello,
Do you guys have any sample VIs to demostrate the Kalman filter particularly for an IMU that has a 3-axis accelerometer and 3-axis gyro using LabVIEW's Control Design Toolkit? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi to all!
I know this is an old topic, but i have a similiar issue. We are using a Kalman Filter, which differs from the embedded (in LV) ones and wish to port this filter to cRIO to run in real time.
I have ported most of the code (the simple version) to a couple of VIs and I would like to get it going in Real time. We have 9 IMU units therefore 9 separate (reentrant) filters have to run simultaneously, at 100 Hz. The sampling frequency is 200 Hz.
Firstly I would like to confirm, that the cRIO will be able to run the Kalman filters in Real time.
Could someone give me some guidelines and help me with the problems I am having:
- One Kalman filter in a timed loop at every 10 ms works fine (i think, based on the tick count)
- 9 Kalman filters work really slowly, at 1Hz!
I attach my VI's for illustration.
Now, in this version, the UKF is written in a MathScript node. There are two cases (which I should join, of course). First case, during the first 100 samples, we initialize the KF parameters and get the bias, the scaling factor etc..., and afterwards take this data into the KF and calculate the KF for the rest of the samples.
I have little experience with LV Real-Time and any suggestions as to making the code lighter and faster are appreciated. Thanks,
Luka

Needs help in using Discrete Extended Kalman Filter.vi

Dear fellow members,
Currently I am working on a research estimating tremor parameter from patients using Discrete Extended Kalman Filter.
I am from Nanyang Technological Univeristy Singapore.
Now, I face a problem in running the Kalman Filter. The error board keep saying that my E(v) has wrong dimension although I have checked my code several times but not find any mistakes in dimension.
Please advice.
Thank you.

How to implement a psophometric filter in Labview software without uising Sound and vibration toolkit?

Someone know the method to implement a psophometric or weighted filter in Labview software Without using Sound and Vibration Toolkit?
Thanks

The simplest way to implement a psophometric filter is to use the Sound and Vibration toolkit.
Anyway if you don't want to purchase it, you can have a look at this forum discussion and this one.

Output of Quad as input of Kalman filter

I am attaching 2 codes; one is a Quad Detector VI and the other a Kalman filter VI. I want to know how can I make the output of Quad Detector as the input of Kalman Filter.
Quad equations: X = [(B+D) - (A+C)] / A+B+C+D ; Y = [(A+B) - (C+D)] / A+B+C+D
Kalman filter equation: Yn = Xn + a * Yn-1 where Xn is the input.

On the two vi's ... go the symbol in the upper right hand part of the screen which shows an icon for the vi. Right click on it and select "show connector". On the Quad Vi, click one of the right hand connector boxes and then click the output indicator on your Quad front panel. On the other vi...do the same thing except connect one of the left hand connectors and then click on the control which inputs the input data for the vi.
Then in the Quad vi...open the block diagram, and select add a vi from the bottom of the function palet...add the Kalman vi...
right click on the Kalman vi...set the show as icon to off ... that will let you look at all of the i/o for the Kalman filter vi. You should see your Quad input ...connect the dots and run...put whatever outputs you want on the Kalman front panel...put them in loops if you wish...but basically that I think is what you are trying to do.
You could also add the Quad vi as a part of the Kalman filter block diagram...which might actually be a better idea.
Hope that helps.

Implement active filter in LabVIEW using Orcad

Hello. My problem is as follows:
I have to generate a filtered signal using LabVIEW and NI-5411(Arbitrary Waveform Generator)(A sinus sweep from 10KHz to 100KHz in LabVIEW --> filter it in LabVIEW --> AWG NI-5411). The filter to use is an active filter designed with Orcad. I had thought of two choices: integrating somehow Orcad in LabVIEW or using a mathematical expression via a Formula Node to characterize that filter. The question would be how should I do it and how do I implement it.Just started working with NI5411, so any help would be really valuable. Thanks.

Nlquist, I am attaching a passive filter in this post. But please see that it is a very rough simulation, I have not yet finalised it. I have done using signal processing and butterworth filter In this attached simulation, I have made a noisy sine wave and filtered it using Butterworth filter. Perhaps now you could be able to answer ny doubt in a better way. I am also attaching a pdf on reading which, I was able to simulate the passive filter ..I have checked the wikipedia page which you are referring but it contains no information how to simulate it in labview. It just contain theory of active and passsive filter. Tell me any method -simple or difficult but please help me with this active analog filter

Low pass filter in LabVIEW Base Development System

Hello,
I've got a problem for several days and I haven't find even a hint to fix it so it's driving me crazy.
I'm developing an application on LabVIEW Base Development System for automatical aquisition and exploitation of five signals.
These signals are generated by a deformation gauge and four potentiometers linked to a NI USB 6210.
I'm using the DAQ assistant on LabVIEW to get and use these signals.
My problem is that I need a 2nd order low pass filter on the deformation gauge signal to get something I can use afterward and none is include in the Base development Sytem of LabVIEW.
I'm sure there is a way to pass through this without buying the Full Development version but I haven't found it yet.
Does anybody has already had this problem and succeed in fixing it ?
If yes, can I have the code ?
Thanks

Thanks for your responses.
I've tried to create a subVI using the transfer function of the filter I need.
Here is the diagram of this subVI :
I'm not sure of this transfer function at all. It seems too simple to me.
Does it look weird to you or does a low-pass second order filter can have such a simple transfer function ?
I've tried it and my signal is still unstable. I guess I'm doing something wrong, but as I'm not that good in electronics, I can't figure out what.
Thanks again

Building of a Robust Spline Profile Filter using Labview

Hi Thank you to anyone that followed me here from my previous post.
I am looking for some help with the building and implementation of the above mentioned filter. I have the mathematics attached. I will have access to Labviews Digital Filter Toolkit in a couple of days.
The purpose of this filter is to create a mean line through the peaks and vallys of a surface profile.

Spline Filter.docx ‏431 KB

Hey Simone,
I have used some basic labview code to generate a couple of matrices and I've done some basic calculations, I was hoping to show you how to implement them. As for the spline filter there is on in the DFT, if you press CTRL+Space bar it will bring up LabVIEW search (this takes some time to load) the type spline and you should find it.

How to implement a psophometric filter in Labview software

I am trying to implement a psophometric filter in software for a noise measurment on a telephony system.

Hi Jake8,
I don't know about your situation, but my use for a psophometric filter
was to filter the audio before a sinad measurement. I didn't find a filter
algothym in the time domain, but I did find the filter shape in the
frequency domain. My SINAD meter calculates the SINAD from FFT data, so
the all i had to do was apply the filter shape over the FFT data, and so
filtering it, then calculate the SINAD.
It is possible to synthesise a FIR filter from frequency domain data, but
I couldn't make it work. The problem with FIR's, is they do take a lot of
processing compaired to IIR's for the same frequency responce.
If their is an engineer out there that can synthesise a suitable FIR or
IIR filter, I can forward the articles that have the freq responce.

Where can I find implamantations from Kalman-Bucy-Filters with LabView?

I want to develop a kalman filter with labview! So I am looking for some examples of implementations from Kalman-Bucy-Filters with labview

Maddi73,
I don't think there are any examples out there.However, if you have MatLaB, you could always call matlab scripts from LabVIEW, because MatLAB has the kalman filtering implemented.

How to create a filter using mathscript transfer function in labview

Dear all,
I am currently designing a filter in labview using a Mathscript looping. The filter can be represented in transfer function. I have attachted the transfer function equation together with its value and the desire frequency vs. amplitude graph that I should obtained from it. Also, following are the transfer function written in Matlab.
B1= tf ([57.5221845],[1 51.017077 205.1868]);
B2 = tf ([1 0],[7.6991]);
B3 = tf ([1 0],[14.32433403]);
B4 = tf ([1 0],[137.6017]);
F = B1 * ( (1+B3)/((1+B2)*(1+B4)));
plot(F)
I have also modify the coding as Labview Mathscript does not support the Matlab coding "tf" as transfer function to "bilinear"
Problem I am facing are:
1) Unable to display the graph of the filter in labvie.
2) Unable to have sinewave as an input to the filter.
3) The output cannot be display in graph format.
Hope to have the soonest reply from you guys. Many thanks in advance

Weighting Filter.vi ‏266 KB

Thank you again for offering to help me in writing the code.
I suppose that I should do a frequency sweep on the transfer
function to prove that it behave as the sample graph. Example, if I have an input sine
wave with the frequency of 8.8Hz passing through the transfer function filter, the
output that I should be getting is 1 according to the transfer function graph
and of cause the frequency range of my input sine wave would only be between
the ranges of 0.5 Hz to 30 Hz.
