Abstract :
Observer theory for constant-coefficient, linear systems is extended to systems with unknown, inaccessible inputs. Two types of observers for such systems are defined, and simplified criteria for their existence are developed. A theorem regarding the structure of these observers is given which allows the application of results for systems with single unknown inputs to systems with multiple unknown inputs.
