Time-varying increasing-gain observers for nonlinear systems. (English) Zbl 1364.93080

Summary: A full-order state observer for a class of nonlinear continuous-time systems is presented as generalization of the high-gain observer for having a time-varying gain that is let to be small in the first time instants, increases over time up to its maximum, and then is kept constant. The global stability of the resulting estimation error is proved by means of a Lyapunov functional via a change of coordinate. The design of such an observer is obtained by solving a nonlinear programming problem and using series expansions to set the time-varying gain.
