Global robust output regulation for output feedback systems
The global robust output regulation problem for the class of nonlinear systems in output feedback form has been studied under the assumption that the solution of the regulator equations is polynomial. This assumption essentially requires these systems contain only polynomial non-linearity and is due to the failure of finding a nonlinear internal model to account for more complex nonlinearities than polynomials. Recently, it was found that a nonlinear internal model can be constructed under some assumption much milder than the polynomial assumption. In this note, we will apply this type of internal model to solve the global robust output regulation problem for the class of nonlinear systems in output feedback form.
