摘要

While the literature provides optimal solutions for the state estimation in linear systems, only suboptimal solutions are available for nonlinear systems. By considering a convex modeling of nonlinearities, using polytopes, differential mean value theorem, or factorization techniques, it is possible to derive conditions based on convex optimization, through linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), to ensure the state estimation in nonlinear systems. In this context, this work provides a new state estimation approach for discrete-time nonlinear systems that employs LMI conditions to synthesize state estimators. This approach adopts a new guaranteed covariance Kalman filter that is based on the steps of the classic Kalman filter. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated through several simulated examples.
