This paper considers the system identification problem for hysteresis systems. This problem plays an important role in achieving better control performance, because many actuators have hysteresis property. This paper proposes a method to identify linear dynamical systems having input hysteresis property of backlash type. The method is based on particle filter, which is known for its applicability to a wide class of nonlinear systems. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in detail. Furthermore, experimental validation is performed for a DC servo motor system.
