Abstract
This paper considers the development of a discrete-time low order delayed-measurement observer for a discrete time-invariant linear system. The low-order delayed measurement observer developed has several unique features. It utilizes discrete time delayed measurements as part of its inputs and it is an rth order observer for an nth order linear system with q linearly independent outputs where r<n-q. The purpose of this observer is to implement the control directly without estimating the state first. It is shown that under certain conditions the dimension of the observer is much lower than the standard observer of dimension n-q. The procedure employed here presents an approach which can be very important in large scale control implementation.
