In this paper, an unknown-input proportional integral (PI) observer is presented and its applicability to the design of exact loop transfer recovery (Exact LTR) is shown. First, a sufficient condition for the PI observer to estimate the states of systems without knowledge of unknown input is derived. A simple existence condition of the observer is given. Under the conditions, the Exact LTR with specified observer's poles is achieved by the unknown-input PI observer.

This paper presents a state observer for nonlinear systems using approximate observer from. It is shown that if a nonlinear system is approximately error linearizable, then there exists a local nonlinear observer whose estimation error converges exponentially to zero. Since the proposed method relaxes strong geometric conditions of previous works, it improves the existing results for nonlinear observer design. Finally, some example is given to show the effectiveness of this scheme.

This paper proposes a general structure observer and shows the characteristic of external noise reduction in linear discrete system. First we propose a simple genera structured observer which includes high gain term or PI(proportional integral) term to eatimate the states of system and show that the observer can estimate the states of system even if an external noise is added to the system's output. An existence condition of the observer is derived and checked by system's rank condition. Through a numerical example we can verify that the proposed observer is effective to estimate the state of system with external noise compared to that of conventional high gain observer.

A control approach for the robust position control of induction motors based on the improved binary disturbance observer is described. The conventional binary disturbance observer is used to remove the chattering problem of a sliding mode disturbance observer. However, the steady state error may be existed in the conventional binary disturbance observer because it estimates external disturbance with a constant boundary layer. In order to overcome this problem, a new binary disturbance observer with an integral augmented switching hyperplane is improved. The robustness is achieved, and the continuous control is realised by employing the improved observer without the chattering problem and the steady state error. The effectiveness of the improved observer is confirmed by the comparative experimental results.

In this paper, the robust nonlinear observer will be developed for PEM fuel cell system. Nonlinear model of PEM fuel cell system is introduced to study the design problems of observer. Sliding mode observer is designed to estimate the cathode and anode pressures of PEMFC system. And a nonlinear state observer is also designed to estimate the other states such as supply manifold pressure, Oxygen pressure, Hydrogen pressure, return manifold pressure, etc. The validity of the proposed observer will be verified by using Lyapunov's stability analysis method.

This paper presents a sensorless speed control of a DC servo motor using a fuzzy-sliding observer in the presences of load disturbances. A fuzzy-sliding observer is proposed in order to estimate the speed of a motor rotor. First, a sliding observer is used to estimate the derivative of the armature current directly using the armature current mesured in the DC servo motor. Second, the optimal gain of the Luenberger observer is set up using the fuzzy control. Experimental results show the good performance in the DC servo motor system with the proposed fuzzy-sliding observer.

This paper presents a sliding mode observer for the sensorless control of interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) drives. The sliding mode observer has been presented as a robust estimation method. Most of these previous works, however, were not for an interior PMSM (IPMSM), but for a non-salient pole PMSM and its observer design is conducted in the stationary reference frame. Thus, in this paper, we investigate the design of a sliding mode observer and its driving characteristics for an IPMSM. The proposed sliding mode observer is designed in the rotating reference frame, and good drive performance is achieved even when the observer parameters are mismatched with those of an actual motor. The proposed method is applied to a 600W IPMSM, and, then, the measurement results are presented.

The closed-loop state and input observer is a pole-placement type observer and estimates unknown state and input variables simultaneously. Pole-placement type observers may have poor transient performance with respect to ill-conditioning factors such as unknown initial estimates, round-off error, etc. For the robust transient performance, the effects of these ill-conditioning factors must be minimized in designing observers. In this paper, the transient performance of the closed-loop state and input observer is investigated quantitatively by considering the error bounds due to ill-conditioning factors. The performance indices are selected from these error bounds and are related to the observer robustness with respect to the ill -conditioning factors. The closed-loop state and input observer with small performance indices is considered as a well-conditioned observer from the transient perspective.

This paper proposes a design methodology for the robust observer using the eigenstructure assignment in multi-output systems so that the observer is less sensitive to the ill-conditioning factors such as unknown initial estimation error, modeling error and measurement bias in transient and steady-state observer performance. The robustness of the observer can be achieved by selecting the desired eigenvector matrix to have a small condition number that guarantees the small upper bound of the estimation error. So the left singular vectors of the unitary matrix spanned by space of the achievable eigenvectors are selected as a desired eigenvectors. Also, this paper proposes how to select the desired eigenvector based on the measure of observability and designs the observer with small gain. An example of a spindle drive system is simulated to validate the robustness to the ill-conditioning factors in the observer performance.

This paper presents a sensorless speed control of cylindrical permanent magnet synchronous motors(PMSM) using an adaptive integral binary observer In view of composition with a main loop regulator and an auxiliary loop regulator, the binary observer has a property of the chattering alleviation in the constant boundary layer. However, the steady state estimation accuracy and robustness are dependent upon the width of the constant boundary. In order to improve the steady state performance of the binary observer, the binary observer is formed by adding extra integral dynamics to the switching hyperplane equation. With the help of integral characteristic, the rotor speed can be finely estimated and utilized for a sensorless speed controller for PMSM. Since the Parameters of the dynamic equations such as machine inertia or a viscosity friction coefficient are lot well known, there are many restrictions in the actual implementation. The proposed adaptive integral binary observer applies an adaptive scheme so that observer may overcome the problem caused by using the dynamic equations and the rotor speed is constructed by using the Lyapunov function. The observer structure and its design method are described. The experimental results of the proposed algorithm are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.
