Opis

The theory of linear functional observers, which is the subject of this book, is increasingly becoming a popular researched topic because of the many advantages it presents in state observation and control system design. This book presents recent information on the current state of the art research in this field. This book will serve as a useful reference to researchers in this area of research to understand the fundamental concepts relevant to the theory of functional observers and to gather most recent advancements in the field. This book is useful to academics and postgraduate students researching into the theory of linear functional observers. This book can also be useful for specialized final year undergraduate courses in control systems engineering and applied mathematics with a research focus.

Recenzje

From the reviews:

"This book provides a thorough study of the observer design problem for certain classes of control systems (i.e., systems with inputs). ... The reference list is exhaustive and the authors present a detailed literature review. ... a mathematician with interest in control theory will gain many things by studying the book ... . To summarize: it is an interesting book with many strong points and the reader will benefit by studying it." (Iasson Karafyllis, Mathematical Reviews, May, 2013)

"This is a broad survey of the theory and applications of functional observers, suitable for graduate studies or specialized research stages. The exposition style is attractive and requires a medium level of training in control systems engineering. The presentation of each main theoretical topic relies on a rigorous mathematical foundation and it is accompanied by design algorithm(s) and illustrative example(s)."
