摘要：AbstractThis paper studies the problem of designing sampled-data observers and observer-based, sampled-data, output feedback stabilizers for systems with both discrete and distributed, state and output time-delays. The obtained results can be applied to time delay systems of strict-feedback structure. The proposed design approach consists in exploiting an existing observer, which features robust exponential convergence of the error when continuous-time output measurements are available. The observer is then modified, mainly by adding an inter-sample output predictor, to compensate for the effect of data-sampling. Using Lyapunov stability tools and small-gain analysis, we show that robust exponential stability of the error is preserved, provided the sampling period is not too large.
