This paper deals with the state estimation of linear time-invariant discrete systems with unknown inputs. The forward sequences of the output are treated as additional outputs. In this case, the rank condition for designing the unknown input estimator is relaxed. The gain for minimal estimation error variance is presented, and a numerical example is given to verify the proposed unknown input estimator.

This paper deals with the design of a reduced-order stabilizing controller for the linear system. The coupled lineal matrix inequality (LMI) problem subject to a rank condition is solved by a sequential semidefinite programming (SDP) approach. The nonconvex rank constraint is incorporated into a strictly linear penalty function, and the computation of the gradient and Hessian function for the Newton method is not required. The penalty factor and related term are updated iteratively. Therefore the overall procedure leads to a successive LMI relaxation method. Extensive numerical experiments illustrate the proposed algorithm.
