Abstract
Abstract We consider a moving horizon estimation (MHE) scheme involving a discounted least squares objective for general nonlinear continuous-time systems. Provided that the system is detectable (incrementally integral input/output-to-state stable, i-iIOSS), we show that there exists a sufficiently long estimation horizon that guarantees robust global exponential stability of the estimation error in a time-discounted L 2-to-L ∞ sense. In addition, we show that i-iIOSS Lyapunov functions can be efficiently constructed by verifying certain linear matrix inequality conditions. In combination, we propose a flexible Lyapunov-based MHE framework in continuous time, which particularly offers more tuning possibilities than its discrete-time analog, and provide sufficient conditions for stability that can be easily verified in practice. Our results are illustrated by a numerical example.
