It was shown that the robustness of deterministic observers with respect to modeling errors, measurement bias and round-off errors can be represented by a single performance index the condition number of the observer eigenvector matrix. In this paper, a robust observer for multi-output systems is designed using the left eigenstructure assignment, where the observer gain can not be determined uniquely with respect to the desired observer poles. Utilizing the eigenstructuer assignment for the robustness of the observer, the desired eigenvector matrix is selected to achieve the observer eigenvector matrix with the small condition number. The performance of the designed robust observer is evaluated in a spindle-drive simulation example where the load speed to be estimated based on the measured signals.

A robust disturbance rejection controller for the hovering motion of underwater vehicles in near the surface of sea is presented. The suggested controller consists of two control parts, the one is disturbance observer for taking into account the effects of sea wave and missile-launching forces, and the other is sliding mode controller for the robust stability of underwater vehicles with model uncertainties and nonlinearities. It is shown that the sliding mode control system with disturbance observer is more effective compared with the sliding mode control system, especially in case that large sea wave force is affected.

In this paper, we present a reduced-order observer for a class of nonlinear systems based on the input output linearization. While the most results in the literature presented full-order nonlinear observer, we proposed a procedure for the design of reduced-order observer far nonlinear systems that are not necessarily observable. Assuming that there exists a global observer fer internal dynamics and that certain functions are globally Lipschitz, we can design a global reduced-order observer An illustrative example is included that demonstrate the design procedure of the proposed reduced-order observer.

This paper presents an observer design method for a special class of multi input multi output(MIMO) nonlinear systems. First, we characterize the class of MIMO nonlinear systems with a block triangular structure. Also, the observability matrices for SISO nonlinear systems are extended to MIMO systems. By using the generalized observability matrices, it is shown that under the boundedness conditions of system state and input, the proposed observer guarantees the local exponential stability of error dynamics. Finally, its application to induction motor is given to verify the proposed method.

A nonlinear version of disturbance observer is presented. The system under consideration is an uncertain single input single output nonlinear system and the nominal plant is also a nonlinear system. Compared to the previous implementation given in [8], the proposed scheme does not require an auxiliary variable anymore, thus it has a simpler and more intuitive structure. A robust stability condition for the overall closed-loop system is also provided.

In this paper, a simple design of a DOB (Disturbance Observer) for attitude control of a quad-rotor system is presented. A modified DOB structure from the conventional DOB is introduced to eliminate time-delay in the calculation. The proposed simple modification in the DOB configuration provides an efficiency in the calculation of the disturbance term such that the delayed calculation is not required. The performance of the modified DOB is evaluated through simulation studies. To confirm the simulation results, experimental studies of the attitude control of a quad-rotor system are conducted.

This paper describes a nonlinear state observer to identify the rotor position and velocity of a hybrid-type linear pulse motor(LPM). Since the observer's error dynamics of a hybrid-type LPM is highly nonlinear, the stability of the proposed observer is analyzed using an approximated error model. The optimal choices of the proposed observer gains are also discussed. Our extensive simulation study shows that the proposed observer can identify rotor position and velocity and is robust with respect to uncertainties in mechanical parameters and load force.

This paper presents a method for designing a robust controller that alleviates disturbance effects and compensates performance degradation owing to the time-delay. Disturbance observer(DOB) approach as a tool of robust control has been widely employed in industry. However, since the Pade approximation of time-delay makes the plant non-minimum phase, the classical DOB cannot be applied directly to the system with time-delay. By using a new DOB structure for non-minimum phase systems together with the Smith Predictor, we propose a new controller for reducing the both effects of disturbance and time-delay. Moreover, the closed-loop system can be made robust against uncertain time-delay with the help of a Pill controller tuning method that is based on a second-order plus dead time modeling technique.

The pantograph-catenary system is one of important components for high-speed rail system that are powered electrically. Electrical power is delivered from a catenary structure to the train via a pantograph and thus it is very important to regulate the contact force between catenary and pantograph. Although a lot of research results for active pantograph have been reported, most of them have made an unrealistic assumption that the catenary displacement is constant with respect to the time. In this paper, we present a new pantograph model that regards the catenary displacement as an unknown disturbance input. Moreover, a disturbance observer based controller is proposed to remove the effect of disturbance, i.e., the catenary displacement variation. The computer simulation result shows that the substantial improvement in regulating the contact force can be achieved by the proposed controller.
