We address the problem of dynamic output feedback stabilization at an unobservable target point. The challenge lies in according the antagonistic nature of the objective and the properties of the system: the system tends to be less observable as it approaches the target. We illustrate two main ideas: well chosen perturbations of a state feedback law can yield new observability properties of the closed-loop system, and embedding systems into bilinear systems admitting observers with dissipative error systems allows to mitigate the observability issues. We apply them on a case of systems with linear dynamics and nonlinear observation map and make use of an ad hoc finite-dimensional embedding. More generally, we introduce a new strategy based on infinite-dimensional unitary embeddings. To do so, we extend the usual definition of dynamic output feedback stabilization in order to allow infinite-dimensional observers fed by the output. We show how this technique, based on representation theory, may be applied to achieve output feedback stabilization at an unobservable target.
