Abstract :
The problem of optimal estimation (filtering and fixed-lag smoothing) for linear continuous time systems containing multiple time delays can be considerably simplified in the absence of state excitation noise. The optimal filter and fixed-lag smoother can be computed forward in time and are asymptotically stable.
