The robust L2-gain estimation is investigated for general uncertain systems with structured uncertainties. A new estimation structure is introduced: the Augmented-Gain Observer which encompasses both filters and observers and allows robust estimation even for some classes of unstable systems. Our approach is based on a separation of graphs theorem using frequency dependent Integral Quadratic Co...

This paper proposes a robust diagnosis observer of dynamical systems modeled by Bond Graph approach. The observer design is achieved by using graphical methods taking advantage of structural properties of the bond graph model. The fault indicators are generated in the presence of parameter uncertainties. Simulation results are used to show the dynamic behavior of system variables and to evaluat...

This paper is concerned with robust observer design for linear time-delay systems in the presence of unstructured uncertainties and of disturbances as well. The proposed method ensures the stability of the observer and the H∞ attenuation of uncertainty and disturbance effects on the estimated error. The result is developed ina delay dependent framework and the observer gain matrix is obtained b...

In this note, we present a robust observer-based H, control design method for linear time-delay systems with norm-bounded time-varying uncertainties. Using the Riccati-equation-based approach we design observer-based feedback control laws, which guarantee the quadratic stability of the closed-loop control system and reduce the effect of the disturbance input on the controlled output to a prescr...

A robust observer design is proposed for Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy neutral models with unknown inputs. The model consists of a mixed neutral and discrete delay, and the disturbances are imposed on both state and output signals. Delay-dependent sufficient conditions for the design of an unknown input T-S observer with time delays are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Some relaxations are i...

This article is devoted to the design of a fuzzy-observer-based control for a class of nonlinear systems with bilinear terms. The class of systems considered is the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy bilinear model. A new procedure to design the observer-based fuzzy controller for this class of systems is proposed. The aim is to design the fuzzy controller and the fuzzy observer of the augmented system ...

In disturbance-observer-based control, the closed loop system consists of a main feedback control loop and an inner disturbance observer loop. This paper presents a design method for a disturbance observer to satisfy closed loop performance specifications, provided that the main feedback controller is known. Taking advantage of certain fixedstructure disturbance observers, the disturbance obser...
