3.4 Sliding‐Mode Observer
The equivalent control approach allows for designing the discrete‐time sliding‐mode realization of a reduced‐order asymptotic observer [37]. Let us consider the following discrete‐time state‐space model:
where
(3.22)
such that the upper partition has the identity relationship with the output vector:
(3.23)
Then, the system given in (3.20) and (3.21) is transformed to the following canonical form:
where
(3.25)
(3.26)
The corresponding sliding‐mode observer is obtained as:
