Output feedback stabilization for an anti-stable Schrödinger equation with internal unknown dynamic and external disturbance

Abstract

In this paper, we consider output feedback stabilization for an anti-stable Schrödinger equation with both the internal unknown dynamic and external disturbance. An unknown input type state observer is designed in terms of a new disturbance estimator. Different from the existing results, we never use high gain in the observer design. Hence, the boundedness assumption on the derivative of disturbance, that is usually required by finite-dimensional extended state observer, is no longer required. The anti-stable term is treated by the backstepping transformation which is given by ODE form to make the controller design easier. Although the close-loop system is nonlinear, both the well-posedness and the asymptotic stability are obtained by a linear method in terms of an invertible transformation. The numerical simulations are presented to illustrate that the proposed scheme is very effective.
