Abstract

The problem of estimating the time derivatives of a bounded measured periodic signal of known period T affected by an unknown bounded noise is addressed. As it is known when the measurements are not affected by noise, linear high-gain observers can provide arbitrary small estimation errors for the time derivatives by increasing the observer gains. In the presence of noise there is a limitation on the gains to be used beyond which increasing the gains increases the estimation error as well. We propose a robust adaptive observer which improves the performance of a linear high gain observer in the presence of measurement noise, by estimating a finite number of terms in the periodic signal Fourier expansion.
