Reduced-order observer-based control design for nonlinear stochastic systems

Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the stabilization control design problem of nonlinear stochastic SISO systems in strict-feedback form. By introducing a novel reduced-order observer, an output-feedback-based control is constructively designed, which renders the closed-loop system asymptotically stable in the large when the nonlinearities and stochastic disturbance equal zero at the equilibrium point of the open-loop system, and bounded in probability, otherwise. Besides, the obtained controller preserves the equilibrium point of the open-loop nonlinear system.
