Abstract In this paper, a new algebraic approach to the on-line signal derivatives estimation is proposed. The proposed approach is based on the conversion of the truncated Taylor series expansion to the set of linearly independent equations regarding the signal derivatives. The nonhomogeneous parts of the obtained set of equations are convolution integrals, which can be transformed to the stable linear state-space filter realization. The proposed algebraic estimator provides stable convergence without the need for periodic re-initialization, as in the case of the conventional algebraic estimators. In contrast to the Taylor series-based tracking differentiators, the proposed estimator also provides an estimation of the arbitrary number of the higher-order signal derivatives. In addition, the tuning of the estimator parameters does not depends on the filter dimension. The efficiency of the proposed estimator is illustrated by the simulation examples and experimental results related to the monitoring of the surgical drilling process. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract This paper addresses the positive filter design problem for a class of continuous-discrete Roesser model in Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy form. Both the observer-based and the general form of filters are designed with l 1 performance constraint. By utilizing the co-positive Lyapunov function approach, sufficient criteria are derived in the form of linear programming, which not only guarantee the existence of the positive lower-bounding/upper-bounding filters but also assure the resulting filtering error system to be asymptotically stable and having a prescribed l 1 -gain performance index. In addition, the explicit design schemes for the corresponding filter parameters are also presented. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to illustrate effectiveness of the proposed results.
