High-gain observer approach to disturbance attenuation using measurement feedback

Abstract

A procedure is developed for disturbance attenuation in a linear system via the use of measurement feedback. A high-gain observer is used to recover the disturbance attenuation properties asymptotically, which can be achieved using full state feedback. It is thus shown that the problem of disturbance attenuation via measurement feedback can be decomposed into two problems of disturbance attenuation via state feedback. These problems of disturbance via state feedback can then be solved using existing methods based on the algebraic Riccati equation. Show more
