Realization of systems with CCD-based measurements

Abstract: This paper considers systems that have a measurement that is computed from the post-processing of a short duration image. The measurement can be regarded as the integral of a linear function of the state variables of the system. The input to the system is assumed to be generated with a zero-order hold whose sampling frequency is the same as that of the measurement. The paper presents a discrete-time finite dimensional state variable model for such systems. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
