A Novel Case of Practical Exponential Observer Using Extended Kalman Filter
This technical note presents a case of practical exponential observer using extended Kalman filter (EKF) independent of certain restrictions, such as online check and estimation error of initial state. Recursive state estimation is usually a challenge for discrete-time nonlinear system in terms of computation cost. EKF is attractive with its simplicity since it is considered as an exponential observer given the above restrictions. However, those restrictions are so mathematically complicated that EKF cannot be practical in estimation. A novel case for an exponential observer using EKF is proposed, which is independent of such restrictions. However, these restrictions are proved to be unnecessary in the case. The proposed case is illustrated by a navigation system scenario. The validity of the case is demonstrated by a numerical simulation experiment. The system is deterministic

The problem addressed is that of designing a full-order observer that guarantees the exponential stability of the error dynamic system. An effective algebraic matrix equation approach is developed to solve this problem. In particular, both the observer analysis and design problems are investigated. By using the singular value decomposition technique and the generalized inverse theory, sufficient conditions for a neutral-type delay system to be exponentially stable are first established. Then, an explicit expression of the desired observers is derived in terms of some free parameters. Furthermore, an illustrative example is used to demonstrate the validity of the proposed design procedur
High gain observer for structured multi-output nonlinear systems
In this note, we present two system structures that characterize classes of multi-input multi-output uniformly observable systems. The first structure is decomposable into a linear and a nonlinear part while the second takes a more general form. It is shown that the second system structure, being more general, contains several system structures that are available in the literature. Two high gain observer design methodologies are presented for both structures and their distinct features are highlighted
State estimation for a fish population via a nonlinear observer
International audienceThis paper focuses on the construction of an exponential observer for an age-structured model of an exploited fish population in order to get an estimation of the number of fishes by age class. The considered model is nonlinear and involves a stock-recruitment function which is not well known. The observer that we construct is independent of this function
Observer design for open and closed trophic chains
Monitoring of ecological systems is one of the major issues in ecosystem research. The concepts and methodology of mathematical systems theory provide useful tools to face this problem. In many cases, state monitoring of a complex ecological system consists in observation (measurement) of certain state variables, and the whole state process has to be determined from the observed data. The solution proposed in the paper is the design of an observer system, which makes it possible to approximately recover the state process from its partial observation. Such systems-theoretical approach has been applied before by the authors to Lotka–Volterra type population systems. In the present paper this methodology is extended to a non-Lotka–Volterra type trophic chain of resource–producer–primary consumer type and numerical examples for different observation situations are also presented
Global Exponential Sampled-Data Observers for Nonlinear Systems with Delayed Measurements
This paper presents new results concerning the observer design for wide
classes of nonlinear systems with both sampled and delayed measurements. By
using a small gain approach we provide sufficient conditions, which involve
both the delay and the sampling period, ensuring exponential convergence of the
observer system error. The proposed observer is robust with respect to
measurement errors and perturbations of the sampling schedule. Moreover, new
results on the robust global exponential state predictor design problem are
provided, for wide classes of nonlinear systems.Comment: 17 pages, submitted for possible publication to Systems and Control
