Abstract

A robust high-gain observer for state and unknown input estimations for a special class of single-output nonlinear systems is developed in this article. Ensuring the observability of the unknown input with respect to the output, the disturbance can be estimated from the sliding surface. In the sliding mode, the convergence of the estimation error dynamics is proven similar to the analysis of high-gain observers.
