An observer design for linear time-delay systems (2002)
Journal Article
Hou, M., Zítek, P., & Patton, R. J. (2002). An observer design for linear time-delay systems. IEEE transactions on automatic control, 47(1), 121-125. https://doi.org/10.1109/9.981730An observer design is proposed for linear systems with time delay. The key of the design is to find a generalized coordinate change such that in the new coordinates all the time-delay terms are injected by the system's output. The existence of such a...
