Abstract

This paper analyzes the stability properties of a state observer estimating the system states from delayed measurements for a linear time invariant plant. The delay is assumed to be a known piecewise constant function of time. The observer construction is a two step procedure and has a "chain-like" structure, consisting of two cascaded dynamical systems. The manifestation of the time-varying delayed output on the observer stability is analyzed at both the "zeroth" and the "first" links in the chain of observers.
