The ability to accurately estimate a number of unknown parameters by sampling only one state variable is demonstrated and optimization of the factors affecting the identification is carried out. The overall technique is judged to be highly effective for a variety of applications.application/pdfenThis item is protected by copyright but is made available here under a claim of fair use (17 U.S.C.
