Error analysis for a reduced-order discrete adaptive observer

The Kreisselmeier discrete adaptive observer is analyzed for the case in which the observer order is less than that of the plant. The state and parameter estimates from the observer are compared to the states and parameters for an arbitrary reduced-order model (ROM) of the plant, where the observer and ROM are of equal dimension. Conditions sufficient for ultimate boundedness of the observation errors are given, and expressions for the error bounds are derived.

Sufficient excitation criteria for reduced-order adaptive observers

Sufficient excitation conditions are derived for three adaptive observation schemes for the case in which the order of the observer is less than that of the plant being observed. The reduced-order excitation requirement, found to be identical for all three observers, is that the input contain more than (n+N-1)/2 frequencies, where n is the observer order, and N is the dimension of the portion of the plant which is both controllable and observable.
