Set‐membership state estimation for delayed switched systems with interval uncertainty: A zonotopic approach

Summary Considering the existence of time delay and interval uncertainty, a set‐membership state estimation problem based on zonotopes is studied for discrete‐time switched systems subject to unknown but bounded noises. To conform the actual situation, a state observer asynchronous with the subsystem is designed. The performance is introduced to attenuate the effect of noises in the observer design. By dealing with the interval uncertainty, the design approach of observer is given and transformed into a convex optimization problem which can be solved off‐line. The zonotope and the estimation interval containing state are provided based on the observer. Finally, a numerical example is given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
