Abstract :
An observer design is presented which makes use of bounds on the slope of system nonlinearities. Necessary and sufficient conditions are derived for the feasibility of the design. A class of state feedback control laws are characterized which, when implemented with the observer states, ensure global asymptotic stability. One such certainty-equivalence design is illustrated on an active magnetic bearing example.
