This paper addresses the design of state observers for linear discrete-time descriptor systems. Assuming that the original descriptor system is completely observable, an equivalent (standard) state-space representation of the system is proposed which preserves the system observability. Then, an LMI based approach is proposed for designing a Luenberger-like observer. In addition, a separation principle is demonstrated considering the estimation error dynamics and the closed-loop representation of the original descriptor system. Then, the observer design is extended to cope with model disturbances in an H1 sense. The eectiveness of the proposed methodology is illustrated by numerical examples.

Abstract This article proposes an observer design for two important variables in the studies of single-leg hopping robot (SLHR), the apex height, and the vertical velocity of SLHR during its stance phase. At first, the Euler–Lagrange (EL) dynamics of SLHR are obtained and apex height is identified in the state-space representation of the EL dynamics. Apex height is the state variable that represents the robot body’s height at the top point, which keeps on changing as the robot functions. Vertical velocity is the velocity of the robot in the vertical direction. An observer design is presented in this article which will estimate these variables when required. The quality of the estimation is validated by the simulation results where the estimation error is zero which means the model output is correct and observer performance is good.

This paper investigates the problem of observer design for simultaneous states and faults estimation for a class of discrete-time descriptor linear models in presence of actuator and sensor faults. The idea of the present result is based on the second equivalent form of implicit model [1] which permits to separate the differential and algebraic equations in the considered singular model, and the use of an explicit augmented model structure. At that stage, an observer is built to estimate simultaneously the unknown states, the actuator faults, and the sensor faults. Next, the explicit structure of the augmented model is established. Then, an observer is built to estimate simultaneously the unknown states, the actuator faults, and the sensor faults. By using the Lyapunov approach, the convergence of the state estimation error of the augmented system is analyzed, and the observer’s gain matrix is achieved by solving only one linear matrix inequality (LMI). At long last, an illustrative model is given to show the performance and capability of the proposed strategy.

This paper deals with robust state estimation for discrete-time, linear parameter varying (LPV) descriptor systems. It is assumed that all the system state-space matrices are affine functions of the uncertain parameters and both the parameters and their variations are bounded functions of time with known minimum and maximum values. First, necessary and sufficient conditions are proposed for admissibility and bounded realness for discrete linear time-varying (DLTV) descriptor systems. Next, two convex optimisation based methods are proposed for designing admissible stationary linear descriptor filters for LPV descriptor systems which ensure a prescribed upper bound on the ℓ2-induced gain from the noise signal to the estimation error regardless of model uncertainties. The proposed filter design results were based on parameter-dependent generalised Lyapunov functions, and full-order, augmented-order and reduced-order filters were considered. Numerical examples are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed filtering scheme. In particular, the proposed approach was used to estimate the state variables of a controlled horizontal 2-DOF robotic manipulator based on noisy measurements.

This work proposes a discrete-time nonlinear rational approximate model for the unstable magnetic levitation system. Based on this model and as an application of the input-output linearization technique, a discrete-time tracking control design will be derived using the corresponding classical state space representation of the model. A simulation example illustrates the efficiency of the proposed methodology.

This study presents an effective approach to stabilizing a continuous-time (CT) nonlinear system using dithers and a discrete-time (DT) fuzzy controller. A CT nonlinear system is first discretized to a DT nonlinear system. Then, a Neural-Network (NN) system is established to approximate a DT nonlinear system. Next, a Linear Difference Inclusion state-space representation is established for the dynamics of the NN system. Subsequently, a Takagi-Sugeno DT fuzzy controller is designed to stabilize this NN system. If the DT fuzzy controller cannot stabilize the NN system, a dither, as an auxiliary of the controller, is simultaneously introduced to stabilize the closed-loop CT nonlinear system by using the Simplex optimization and the linear matrix inequality method. This dither can be injected into the original CT nonlinear system by the proposed injecting procedure, and this NN system is established to approximate this dithered system. When the discretized frequency or sampling frequency of the CT system is sufficiently high, the DT system can maintain the dynamic of the CT system. We can design the sampling frequency, so the trajectory of the DT system and the relaxed CT system can be made as close as desired.

The preview control problem of a class of linear discrete-time descriptor systems is studied. Firstly, the descriptor system is decomposed into a normal system and an algebraic equation by the method of the constrained equivalent transformation. Secondly, by applying the first-order forward difference operator to the state equation, combined with the error equation, the error system is obtained. The tracking problem is transformed into the optimal preview control problem of the error system. Finally, the optimal controller of the error system is obtained by using the related results and the optimal preview controller of the original system is gained. In this paper, we propose a numerical simulation method for descriptor systems. The method does not depend on the restricted equivalent transformation.
