The design and synthesis of a state feedback controller assumes the feedback of all state variables of the system. However, some state variables are not physical quantifies so that sensors may not be available, or may be too expensive to measure. Hence, a state observer can be an alternative to estimate unmeasurable state variables. This paper therefore presents a scheme for state observer-based stabilization control of inverted pendulum systems. The feedback gain matrices of both the state feedback controller and the state observer are tuned by real-coded genetic algorithms(RCGAs) such that the given performance indices are minimized. The proposed method is demonstrated through simulations.

This paper is concerned with the design of a robust tracking controller using a state observer on a robotic manipulator under the disturbance. The controller is designed to follow a step or ramp reference input without steady state error in the presence of a disturbance and a system parameter variation. In most cases, since all the state vectors are not measured, unmeasurable state vectors must be estimated or reconstructed. A reduced order observer is proposed to estimate unmeasurable state vectors of the non-linear system. Some problems are caused by the Coulomb friction, the disturbance, and the spring effect of a link between the drive motor and the manipulator arm. The state variables, directly measured and estimated by the reduced order observer, are fed back to the controller. When the robot system exhibits the 'limit cycle, the feedback gains initially obtained by optimal control theory are changed. As a result, the limit cycle is eliminated by the new controller gains,

In this paper, a new reduced-order dynamic observer method is presented. Two types of observers are pronounced, namely, the model based reduced-order dynamic observer and the Luenburger type reduced-order dynamic observer. Useful design algorithms are also provided for each structure. The essential features of the proposed observed design methods are addressed to be qualified ad effective observers. The proposed method clarifies the duality between the controller and observer designs.

In adaptive fuzzy control systems. fuzzy systems are used to approximate the unknown plant nonlinearities. Until now. most of the papers in the field of controller design for nonlinear system using fuzzy systems considers the affine system with fixed grid-rule structure based on system state availability. This paper considers observer-based nonlinear controller and dynamic fuzzy rule structure. Adaptive laws for fuzzy parameters for state observer and fuzzy rule structure are established so that the whole system is stable in the sense of Lyapunov.

This paper deals with the observer design problem for a class of state-delayed nonlinear systems with or without time-varying norm-bounded parameter uncertainty. The nonlinearities under consideration are assumed to satisfy the global Lipschitz conditions and appear in both the state and measured output equations. The problem we address is the design of a nonlinear observer such that the resulting error system is globally asymptotically stable. For the case when there is no parameter uncertainty, a sufficient condition for the solvability of this problem is derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities and the explicit formula of a desired observer is given. Based on this, the robust observer design problem for the case when parameter uncertainties appear is considered and the solvability condition is also given. Both of the solvability conditions obtained in this paper are delay-dependent. A numerical example is provided to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed approach.

To improve the performances of Sawyer motors and to regulate yaw rotation, various feedback control methods have been developed. Almost all of these methods require information on the position, velocity or full state of the motor. Therefore, in this paper, a nonlinear observer is designed to estimate the full state of the four forcers in a Sawyer motor. The proposed method estimates the full state using only positional feedback. Generally, Sawyer motors are operated within a yaw magnitude of several degrees; outside of this range, Sawyer motors step out. Therefore, this observer design assumes that the yaw is within ${\pm}90^\b{o}$. The convergence of the estimation error is proven using the Lyapunov method. The proposed observer guarantees that the estimation error globally exponentially converges to zero for all arbitrary initial conditions. Furthermore, since the proposed observer does not require any transformation, it may result in a reduction in the commutation delay. The simulation results show the performance of the proposed observer.

A novel state of health estimation method for hybrid electric vehicle lithium battery using sliding mode observer has been presented. A simple R-C circuit method has been used for the lithium battery modeling for the reduced calculation time and system resources due to the simple matrix operations. The modeling errors of simple model are compensated by the sliding mode observer. The design methodology for state of health estimation using dual sliding mode observer has been presented in step by step. The structure of the proposed system is simple and easy to implement, but it shows robust control property against modeling errors and temperature variations. The convergence of proposed observer system has been proved by the Lyapunov inequality equation and the performance of system has been verified by the sequence of urban dynamometer driving schedule test. The test results show the proposed observer system has superior tracking performance with reduced calculation time under the real driving environments.

This paper presents neural observer that used to deadbeat load torque observer. Most practical systems are nonlinear, and it is general practice to use linear models to simplify their analysis and design. However, the locally linearized model is invalid for a large signal change. The neural observer is suggested to increase the performance of the load torque observer and main controller The output error and estimeted state is trianed by neural network of neural observer. As a result, the state estimation error is minimised and deadbeat load torque observer make use of corrected esimation state. To reduce of the noise effect of deadbeat load torque observer, the post-filter which is implemented by MA process, is adopted. As a result, the proposed control system becomes a robust and precise system against the load torque. A stability and usefulness, through the verified computer simulation, are shown in this paper.

This paper deals with ROLSO (Reduced Order Luenberger State Observer) design to prevent jackknifing phenomenon of articulated vehicles consisting of the tractor and semi-trailer by using GPS. In addition, by applying the regulator system using ROLSO feedback system, simulation's result presents that articulated vehicle's states are stabilized than the human's PR time (Preception Response time) rapidly. This simulation verifies that the automatic control of articulated vehicle's can be applied for the accident prevention for the time that the driver is unable to manage with the sudden accident. For this simulation, by using the equation of planar motion, the modeling of the articulated vehicle was performed. This modeling was expressed in the state space model. And FOLSO (Full Order Luenberger State Observer), ROLSO were designed by using the state space model of an articulated vehicle's dynamics.

A novel observer design methodology for linear time-invariant systems named the dynamic observer is presented. Efficient and plausible design algorithms are also provided. The dynamic observer is an extension of the usual static observer. The concept of the dynamic observer enlarges the capacity of observer design so much that well-developed advanced linear controller design techniques can be utilized to design observers. Both the dynamic observers in the form of standard and Luenburger types are considered. The essential characteristics of the dynamic observer to be qualified as an effective observer design scheme are addressed.
