A Novel Approach to Set-Membership Observer for Systems with Unknown Exogenous Inputs

Motivated by the increasing need to monitor safety-critical systems subject to uncertainties, a novel set-membership approach is proposed to estimate the state of a dynamical system with unknown-but-bounded exogenous inputs. The proposed method decomposes the system into the strongly observable and weakly unobservable subsystem in which an unknown input observer and an ellipsoidal set-membership observer are designed for each subsystem, respectively. The conditions for the boundedness of the proposed set estimate are discussed, and the proposed set-membership observer is also tested numerically using illustrative examples.
