摘要：AbstractEstimation of the switching signal of continuous-time switched bilinear systems from input-output measurements is addressed in this paper. First, the uniqueness problem of the switching signal reconstruction from the input-output data is studied in terms of distinguishability analysis of the operating modes. In this context, a numerically verifiable condition for the operating modes distinguishability is established. This condition also provides a characterization of regularly persistent control inputs ensuring the unique determination of the switching signal. For these class of control inputs, an algorithm is then provided for the estimation problem. The proposed approach is based on a compatibility test between the input-output measurements and the dynamical behaviour of the modes.
