Input-Output Polynomial Models

Input-output polynomial models, including ARX, ARMAX, output-error, and Box-Jenkins model structures

A polynomial model uses a generalized notion of transfer functions to express the relationship between the input, u(t), the output y(t), and the noise e(t) using an equation of the form:

A(q)y(t)=B(q)F(q)u(tnk)+C(q)D(q)e(t).

A(q), B(q), F(q), C(q) and D(q) are polynomial matrices in terms of the time-shift operator q-1. u(t) is the input, and nk is the input delay. y(t) is the output and e(t) is the disturbance signal.

Each polynomial has an independent order, or number of estimable coefficients. For example, if A(q) has an order of 2, then the A polynomial has the form A(q) = 1 + a1q-1 + a2q-2.

In practice, not all the polynomials are simultaneously active. Simpler polynomial forms, such as ARX, ARMAX, Output-Error, and Box-Jenkins provide model structures suitable for specific objectives such as handling nonstationary disturbances or providing completely independent parameterization for dynamics and noise. For more information about these model types, see What Are Polynomial Models?
