  • Abstract
    A minimax estimator for the state of a discrete time-varying linear plant with an a priori unknown control sequence is developed. No statistics for the sequence of control vectors are assumed to exist. It is assumed, however, that the a priori unknown control sequence can be measured in additive Gaussian noise with zero mean and known variance.
