SummaryIn practical applications, many processes have nonlinear characteristics that require nonlinear models for accurate description. However, constructing such models and determining their parameters are a challenging task. This article explores filtered identification methods for estimating the parameters of a particular type of nonlinear Hammerstein systems with ARMA noise. An auxiliary model‐based least squares algorithm is developed for such systems based on the auxiliary model identification idea. A hierarchical least squares algorithm that utilizes the hierarchical identification principle is proposed to enhance computational efficiency. Additionally, a key term separation technique is employed to express the system output as a linear combination of parameters, allowing the system to be decomposed into smaller subsystems for more efficient estimation of parameters. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of these proposed algorithms.
