Static output feedback and guaranteed cost control of a class of discrete-time nonlinear systems with partial state measurements Original Research Article

In this paper both the static output feedback issue and the observer-based control of a class of discrete-time nonlinear systems are considered. Thanks to a newly developed linearization lemma, it is shown that the solution of the discrete-time output feedback problem is conditioned by a set of simple convex optimization conditions that are numerically tractable and free from any equality constraint. An illustrative example is provided to show the usefulness of the proposed control designs.
