Observers design for a class of nonlinear singular systems
Résumé
This paper presents a new approach for observer design for a class of nonlinear singular systems which can be transformed into a special normal form. The interest of the proposed form is to facilitate the observer synthesis for the studied nonlinear singular systems. Necessary and sufficient geometrical conditions are deduced in order to guarantee the existence of a diffeomorphism which transforms the studied nonlinear singular systems into the proposed normal form.
