4. Observability
The notion of observability will determine whether knowledge of the output y is sufficient to uniquely determine the state x.
Theorem 5 – The system (1)-(2) is said to be completely observable if, for any x(t
0
), there exists t
f
> t
0
such that knowledge of u and y in the interval [t
0
, t
f
] uniquely determines x (t
0
).
If only certain states (i.e. certain components of the vector x) can be uniquely determined from u and y, these states are said to be observable. A system is therefore completely observable if all its states...
