Nonlinear observer design by dynamic observer error linearization

In this note, we address the problem of transforming a nonlinear system into nonlinear observer canonical form in the extended state-space with the aid of dynamic system extension and introduction of virtual outputs. As an intermediate step for the general problem, we consider a restricted structure of dynamic extension, which is obtained, roughly speaking, by adding the chains of integrators to the outputs of original system. We propose sufficient conditions which can be verified using the system dynamics expressed in their original coordinates. An illustrative example is included that demonstrates the advantage of the proposed method over the conventional method.
