Abstract
Control applications are increasingly sampled non-equidistantly in time, including in motion control, networked control, resource-aware control, and event-triggered control. Some of these applications use measurement devices that sample equidistantly in the amplitude domain. The aim of this paper is to develop a non-parametric estimator of the impulse response of continuous-time systems based on such sampling strategy, known as Lebesgue-sampling. To this end, kernel methods are developed to formulate an algorithm that adequately takes into account the output intersample behavior, which ultimately leads to more accurate models and more efficient output sampling compared to the standard approach. The efficacy of this method is demonstrated through a mass-spring damper case study.
