Observer design for a class of MIMO nonlinear systems

A simple observer is proposed for a large class of MIMO nonlinear systems which includes many physical models. The main characteristic of the proposed observer lies in the easiness of its implementation and calibration. Indeed, the gain of this observer does not necessitate the resolution of any dynamical system and its expression is given. Moreover, its calibration is achieved through the choice of a single parameter. A simulation example is given in order to illustrate the performance of the proposed observer.
