In this paper, we present a local reduced-order observer for a class of nonlinear systems that have full robust relative degree. The proposed observer utilizes the coordinate change which transforms a nonlinear system into an approximate normal form. The proposed reduce order observer is applied to a ball and beam system, and simulation results show that substantial improvement in the performance was achieved compared with the jacobian linearization observers.

This paper proposes an observer-based method for adaptive nonlinear guidance. Previously, adaptive nonlinear guidance law is proposed considering target maneuver and control loop dynamics. However, several information of this guidance law is not available, and therefore needs to be estimated for more practical application. Accordingly, considering the unavailable information as bounded time-varying uncertainties, an integrated guidance and control model is re-formulated in normal form with respect to available states including target uncertainties and control loop dynamics. Then, a nonlinear observer is designed based on the integrated guidance and control model. Finally, using the estimates for states and uncertainties, an observer-based adaptive guidance law is proposed to guarantee the desired interception performance against maneuvering target. The proposed approach can be effectively used against target maneuver and the limited performance of control loop. The stability analyses and simulations of the proposed observer and guidance law are included to demonstrate the practical application of our scheme.

In this paper, some differential geometric conditions for the observer using a recurrent neural network are provided in terms of a stochastic nonlinear system control. In the stochastic nonlinear system, it is necessary to make an additional condition for observation of stochastic nonlinear system, called perfect filtering condition. In addition, we provide a observer using a recurrent neural network for the observation of a stochastic nonlinear system with the proposed observation conditions. Computer simulation shows that the control performance of the stochastic nonlinear system with a observer using a recurrent neural network satisfying the proposed conditions is more efficient than the conventional observer as Kalman filter

By utilizing the interinsic structure of the underlying continous-time nonlinear system, one can design an approximate sampled-data observer improved with respect ot the sampling-time for the systems. In this paper, we characterize the conditions for the solvability of the improved approximate sampled-data nonlinear observer design problem. In particular, it is shown that when the dimension of the state space is two, the nonlinear systems for which it is possible ot desing 3rd or higher order approximate sampled-data nonlinear observer are locally state-equivalent to an observable bilinear system. The practical implication is that seeking higher order approximate sampled-data nonlinear observer for nonlinear systems is very restricted.

A robust nonlinear observer, utilizing the sliding mode concept, is developed for the dynamic positioning of ships. The observer provides the estimates of linear velocities of the ship and bias from slowly varying environmental loads. It also filters out wave frequency motion to avoid wear of actuators and excessive fuel consumption. The main advantage of the proposed observer is in its robustness. Especially, the observer structure with a saturation function makes the proposed observer robust against neglected nonlinearties, disturbances and uncertainties. Since the mathematical model of DP ships is difficult to obtain and includes uncertainties and disturbances, it is very important for the observer to be robust. A nonlinear output feedback controller is derives based on the developed observer using the observer backstepping technique, and the global stability of the observer and control law is shown by Lyapunov stability theory.. A set of simulation was carried out to investigate the performance of the proposed observer for dynamic positioning of ships.

This paper proposes the state observer design for nonlinear systems with delayed output. It is shown that by considering a nonlinear term of error dynamics as an additional state variable, the nonlinear error dynamics with time delay can be transformed into the linear one with time delay. Sufficient conditions for existence of a state observer are characterized by linear matrix inequalities. Finally, an illustrative example is given in order to show the effectiveness of our design method.

This paper presents an nonlinear observer scheme for flexible joint robot manipulators. This nonlinear observer scheme is based on the sliding mode method. Sliding controllers have recently been shown to feature excellent robustness and performance properties for specific classes of nonlinear tracking problems. Dynamic equations of flexible joint robot manipulators are derived from the Euler-Lagrange equations by forming the corresponding Lagrangian. Simulation results are presented to show the validness of the proposed nonlinear observer scheme.

This paper proposes the self-recurrent wavelet neural network (SRWNN) observer based sliding mode control (SMC) method for nonlinear systems. Unlike the classical SMC, we assume that all states of nonlinear systems are not measured and design the SRWNN observer to measure the states of nonlinear systems. The SRWNN in the observer is used for approximating the observer system's gain. To generate the control input for controlling the nonlinear system, the measured states are used. The sliding surface with a boundary layer is defined to remove the chattering of the control input. Simulation result to show the effectiveness of the SRWNN observer is presented.

In this paper, a robust observer design method for nonlinear multi input multi-output(MINO) plants is presented. This method enables the extension of the time delay observer (TDO) for nonlinear SISO plants in the phase variable form to MIMO plants. The designed TDO reconstructs the states of the plant expressed in the generalized observability canonical form (GOBCF), yet requiring neither the transformation of a plant, nor the real time computation coordinates, the observer turned out to be computationally efficient and easy to design for nonlinear MIMO plants. In a simulation of a two-link manipulator with flexible joints, the control performances using TDO appeared to be similar to those using actual states and superior to those using numerical differentiation. Finally, in an experiment with a robot, it was confirmed that the TDO reconstructs the states reliability and TDO can be effectively used in a real closed-loop system.

In this paper, the observer based nonlinear state feedback controller has been developed to control the pressures of the oxygen and the hydrogen in the PEM(Proton Exchange Membrane) fuel cell system. Nonlinear model of the PEM fuel cell system was introduced to study the design problems of the state observer and model based controller. A cascade observer using the filtering technique was used to estimate the pressure derivatives of the cathode and the anode in the system. In order to estimate the pressures of the cathode and the anode, the sliding mode observer was designed by using these pressure derivatives. To estimate the oxygen pressure and the hydrogen pressure in the system, the nonlinear state observer was designed by using the cathode pressure estimates and the anode it. These results will be very useful to design the state feedback controller. The validity of the proposed observers and the controller has been investigated by using the Lyapunov's stability analysis strategy.
