In this document, we present the main ideas and results concerning high‐gain observers
and some of their applications in control. The introduction gives a brief history of the topic …

In this note we deal with a new observer for nonlinear systems of dimension n in canonical
observability form. We follow the standard high-gain paradigm, but instead of having an …

It is well known that high gain observers exist for single output nonlinear systems that are
uniformly observable and globally Lipschitzian. Under the same conditions, we show that …

In this paper, one proposes adaptive observers for a class of uniformly observable MIMO
nonlinear systems with general nonlinear parameterizations. The state and the unknown …

This paper deals with the sliding mode control of a three-dimensional overhead crane. The
model of the crane consists of five highly nonlinear second-order ordinary differential …

A simple observer is proposed for a large class of MIMO nonlinear systems which includes
many physical models. The main characteristic of the proposed observer lies in the easiness …

There exist semi-global and finite-time converging observers for nonlinear systems that are
uniformly observable and globally Lipschitzian. This was achieved with local finite-time …

This work presents a set of cascade high gain predictors to reconstruct the vector state of
triangular nonlinear systems with delayed output. By using a Lyapunov-Krasvoskii …

This technical note addresses the observer design problem for a class of continuous-time
dynamical systems with non-uniformly sampled measurements. More specifically, we …

This paper studies a model-based fault detection and isolation (FDI) scheme for robot
manipulators with actuator and sensor faults. Without adding redundant joint sensor …
