This paper presents a state observer design for a class of MTMO nonlinear systems that has a block triangular structure. For this, the extension of the existing design for SISO triangular systems to MIMO cases is provided. Since the gain of the proposed observer. depends on a nonlinear part as well as a linear one of a system, it improves the transient performance of the high gain ob-server. Also, by using a generalized similarity transformation for the error dynamics, it is shown that order some boundedness condi-tion, the proposed observer guarantees the global exponential convergence of the estimation error. Finally, we will give a simulation example to show the validity of our design methodology.

In this paper, we present an adaptive observer for nonlinear systems that include unknown constant parameters and are not necessarily observable. Sufficient conditions are given for a nonlinear system to be transformed by state-space change of coordinates into an adaptive observer canonical form. Once a nonlinear system is transformed into the proposed adaptive observer canonical form, an adaptive observer can be designed under the assumption that a certain system is strictly positive real. An illustrative example is included to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper presents a robust reduced order state observer for a class of Lipschitz nonlinear systems with external disturbance. Sufficient conditions on the existence of the proposed observer are characterized by linear matrix inequalities. It is also shown that the proposed observer design can reduce the effect on the estimation error of external disturbance up to the prescribed level. Finally, a numerical example is provided to verify the proposed design method.

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.

We propose a nonlinear observer design method for traffic control systems based on T-S fuzzy approach. We parameterize the observer gains in terms of the solution matrices of LMIs. We also give a simple algorithm to compute the observer gain matrices. Finally we give simulation results to show the effectiveness of the proposed fuzzy observer design method.

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.

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.

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.

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.

A canonical form observer design method for nonlinear systems is studied. Through this method, an observer of single link robot system with flexible joint is proposed. It is shown through simulation that the system can be stabilized when using the nonlinear feedback linearizing controller and the supposed observer.
