Observer-based controller for Lipschitz nonlinear systems.

An observer-based controller for Lipschitz nonlinear systems is presented. The necessary and sufficient condition to ensure stability of state-observer as well as nonlinear system with state-feedback control law is derived. According to the separation principle, the closed-loop stability is guaranteed based on dual problems concerning stability of state-observer and stability of state-feedback parts. Also, the stability region for locally Lipschitz nonlinearities is obtained. A practical synthesis approach to achieve controller parameters is then given which yields the closed-loop convergence with less conservative results. The effectiveness of the proposed synthesis method is finally demonstrated by simulation results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
