Noise Generation for Continuous System Simulation

Kurzfassung

Adding random disturbances to Modelica models is necessary to represent stochastic fluctuations like sensor noise, air gusts and road irregularities. In this paper, we present a library to specify a pseudo random noise for continuous-time simulations. The random number generator, a probability density function and a frequency spectrum can be defined independently. A new random number generator is proposed to generate a continuous random signal, which is proven to be highly suitable for continuous models. The performance of the noise models is tested in two benchmarks using an academic as well as a realistic model both showing a remarkable increase in simulation speed.
