Abstract:
The design problem of an adaptive state observer for linear time-varying systems is considered. Some parameters of a time-varying plant are assumed to be unknown numbers multiplied by known functions of time. The approach proposed below is based on identification methods of adaptation. In other words, the main idea is to transform a mathematical model in the form of a linear time-varying differential equation to a static linear regression model containing unknown parameters. In this case, both the unknown parameters of the plant and its initial conditions are the unknown parameters of the regression model under consideration. Further, standard gradient methods or other parametric identification approaches are used to estimate the unknown parameters of the regression model and to construct the observer. The results of computer simulations illustrate the effectiveness of the new state observer design method.
Keywords:linear time-varying systems, state observers, parameter identification.
