In this article, the robust distributed fusion Kalman filtering problems are addressed for the networked mixed uncertain multisensor systems with random one-step measurement delays, multiplicative noises, and uncertain noise variances. A new augmented state approach with fictitious measurement noises modeled by the first-order moving average models is presented, by which the original system is transformed into a standard uncertain system only with uncertain-variance fictitious white noises. Based on the minimax robust estimation principle and Kalman filtering theory, a universal integrated covariance intersection (ICI) fusion approach is presented in the sense that first of all the robust local estimators and their conservative error variances and crosscovariances are presented, and then integrating the local estimation information yields ICI fusers. An extended Lyapunov equation approach with two kinds of Lyapunov equations is presented in order to prove the robustness and to compute fictitious noise statistics. Applying these approaches, the minimax robust local, ICI, and fast ICI fused Kalman estimators (predictor, filter, and smoother) are presented, such that for all admissible uncertainties, their actual estimation error variances are guaranteed to have the corresponding minimal upper bounds. Their robustness, accuracy relations, and convergence are also proved. The proposed ICI fusers improve the robust accuracies and overcome the drawbacks of the original covariance intersection fusers, such that the robust local estimators and their conservative variances are assumed to be known, and their conservative crosscovariances are ignored. Two simulation examples applied to the offshore platform system verify their correctness, effectiveness, and applicability.
