Abstract

This paper develops a result on the design of robust steady-state estimator for a class of uncertain discrete-time systems with Markovian jump parameters. This result extends the steady-state Kalman filter to the case of norm-bounded time-varying uncertainties in the state and measurement equations as well as jumping parameters. We derive a linear state estimator such that the estimation-error covariance is guaranteed to lie within a certain bound for all admissible uncertainties. The solution is given in terms of a family of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). A numerical example is included to illustrate the theory.
