Observability and observers for nonlinear systems with time delays

Luis Alejandro Márquez-Martínez, Claude H. Moog, Martín Velasco-Villa (2002)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

Basic properties on linearization by output injection are investigated in this paper. A special structure is sought which is linear up to a suitable output injection and under a suitable change of coordinates. It is shown how an observer may be designed using theory available for linear time delay systems.

On generalized Popov theory for delay systems

Silviu-Iulian Niculescu, Vlad Ionescu, Dan Ivanescu, Luc Dugard, Jean-Michel Dion (2000)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

This paper focuses on the Popov generalized theory for a class of some linear systems including discrete and distributed delays. Sufficient conditions for stabilizing such systems as well as for coerciveness of an appropriate quadratic cost are developed. The obtained results are applied for the design of a memoryless state feedback control law which guarantees the (exponential) closed-loop stability with an 2 norm bound constraint on disturbance attenuation. Note that the proposed results...

An asymptotic state observer for a class of nonlinear delay systems

Alfredo Germani, Costanzo Manes, Pierdomenico Pepe (2001)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

The problem of state reconstruction from input and output measurements for nonlinear time delay systems is studied in this paper and a state observer is proposed that is easy to implement and, under suitable assumptions on the system and on the input function, gives exponential observation error decay. The proposed observer is itself a delay system and can be classified as an identity observer, in that it is such that if at a given time instant the system and observer states coincide,...
