Global Output Feedback Stabilization of a Class of Nonlinear Systems via Linear Sampled-Data Control

In the literature, it has been proved that under a lower-triangular linear growth condition, a class of uncertain nonlinear systems can be globally stabilized by a linear state feedback controller (Tsinias) and later by a linear output feedback controller (Qian and Lin), both in the continuous-time form. This technical note shows that the same continuous-time system under the same assumption can be globally stabilized by a sampled-data output feedback controller whose observer and control law are discrete-time and linear, and hence can be easily implemented by computers.
