Observer Design for Feedforward Nonlinear Systems with Delayed Output

Abstract

This paper proposes the state observer design for feedforward nonlinear systems with delayed output. It is shown that by using the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, the proposed design method ensures the asymptotic stability of estimation error for an arbitrarily large output delay. Finally, an illustrative example is given in order to show the effectiveness of our design method.
